Did I say jack? I meant the king actually! West switched to club10 and declarer decided to play safely by rising with the ace and taking the "marked" finesse of diamond10. West won with the jack, led a club to her partner's king, and spent the next few seconds cashing her five heart winners. Four off!

Of course, this was a well earned top .. I think not ...........
