In the other room East passed and cashed two clubs. heartA, heart ruff, club ruffed and over-ruffed, heart ruffed and over-ruffed, spade8 exit. The net result was that declarer never did reach dummy and he still had a club loser at the end. Really nice defence. Four off. Plus +200 to East-West, but minus 8 IMPs.
