"But where is the queen of trumps? Ok, we'll settle for not guessing diamonds just now and also not playing on clubs but play spadeK, overtake with the ace, cash the queen and ruff another. They follow small all the way but West contributes the nine on the third round of spades. So are the clubs 5-2 and spades 5-4 somehow? Maybe - even likely! Then we only have to play on hearts right? Play king and then to ace. East follows with small and a queen. Are we still guessing or is it getting clear?"
