If I tell you that this declarer was not Pabis Ticci you might be surprised. Leventritt of America guessed correctly by going up with clubQ and so made an overtrick by throwing his last club on diamondJ.

In the other room Pabis Ticci was fearful of a diamond ruff and lashed down heartAK at tricks two and three. He thus increased his trump losers to two and went one off. Any comments?
