South didn't find this line and relied on the straightforward one. He ruffed the opening lead, crossed to heartA and led a club to the king. West cashed his clubs and East claimed +100 .. and the World Championship. In the other room North-South had gained +500 from 5diamond doubled, so the swing was 12 IMPs one way instead of 3 the other. The final difference between the teams was 13 IMPs.
