K. If you threw a spade then you're done for, because you need to ruff the third spade in hand for your eleventh trick! West has doubled partly because of his heart holding, and there is no chance of establishing your fifth heart for a second spade discard. So ruff a heart at trick five and lead a spade from dummy. You win the return and continue on cross-ruff lines, leaving the two opposition winners to fall on the last trick. Puzzling eh?
