* playing Strong NT

You play low from dummy (or perhaps the jack!) and win in hand while East follows with spade3. Your immediate chance of a ninth trick is a club finesse of the queen, but East wins with the king and returns spade9. Your spadeK is allowed to hold, while West follows with the two.
