I have no doubt that David's extremely bold 4spade took into consideration the standard of the opposition against whom he was playing.

East cashed diamondAK and after a pause continued with another diamond - ruffed by West with spade7. You overruff with the ten.

Early diagnosis: although one heart loser could be ditched on clubK there was still another, not to mention the trump situation. Over to you.
