Whatever your recommended bids on this hand, you have to admire the accuracy of any pair reaching 7NT. Well, that's exactly what happened at one table, and although I can only speculate on the actual sequence, North led heart4.

You win the king and cash spadeAK only to see South ditch a diamond on the second round, North having begun with spadeJ1062. What now?
