Dble End
East led a trump against 2diamond doubled so declarer won and attacked spades. North won East's heartK switch and continued with another spade. North ruffed West's heart return, conceded a trick to diamondK and ruffed a third heart. After cashing his trumps winners declarer played his hard earned spade winner, forcing East to ruff. Poor East had to open up the clubs and North was just one down, for a useful score.
