Ben Gibson took two picoseconds to put heart3 on the deck. This was not the continuation I had hoped for, but there was just the chance that North had both queen and jack of hearts. No such luck. My heart10 was covered and even after cashing all my clubs there was still time for South rise with spadeK and clear the hearts before spadeA had been removed. One off.
