You start magnificently by ruffing in dummy and crossing to hand with heartA. You now lead clubJ and when South plays low, throw diamondK from dummy - it can hardly cost. Miracle of miracles, your clubJ holds, and by now you should be wondering what exactly North has for his 1club. You cross to dummy's heartQ by overtaking the jack as South discards a club, but when you lead a low spade from dummy North pauses and then discards a club too.

What now?
