You may have been looking for something obscure, but it's quite straightforward. At the table South ruffed the heart, crossed to clubA, ruffed a second heart, ruffed a club, ruffed another heart, ruffed a second club and ruffed yet another heart. Only now did he cash diamondAK, West showing out on the king. He was down to four cards with no tricks lost.
