At another table the bidding and first two tricks were the same, but this time West really did win with diamondJ at trick three. The familiar club10 switch came next, but declarer could not bear to give up on her contract and put in the queen. West cashed her heart winners and put dummy back in with clubA. South took another losing diamond finesse and West won the last two tricks with her club winners. Six off!!!
