As John so rightly points out (he was declarer by the way), people play so few Mosyian fits that opponents have trouble recognizing them and/or defending against them. John won the trump shift at trick two with heart10 and led a diamond. After winning West's trump continuation in dummy, he ruffed a diamond, crossed to spadeA and ruffed a second diamond to establish the suit. Finally he went back to dummy with spadeK, pulled trumps and claimed.
