Branco ducked the lead and South won with the king. A club return went to the queen and ace and Branco played three rounds of spades - ruffing. He crossed back to hand with clubJ and led a low heart - end-playing North. diamondA was ruffed, a spade ruffed with heartK, diamondK cashed and South elegantly trump-couped at trick eleven. East-West plus 200, and 53 match-points out 70.
