West ruffed the opening lead and cashed a top trump on which South threw a diamond. After three rounds of hearts, ruffing in dummy, South showed out on the third round. After a diamond ruff, North following with diamond3, declarer suspected that South had a 0-2-7-4 shape, in which case the contract was now 100% - the position of the clubQ being irrelevant.
