Having secured three spade winners to mop your diamond losers all you need now is a club ruff, so a club to the king and a club back to the ace... you can see what happened!

South had followed low on the second spade even though held the jack! The original declarer was convinced that South had not realised what had been played from dummy and played low in auto pilot mode, but the net effect was a sensational defence.
