What happened next was that South started regretting ducking with diamondK. Declarer switched to hearts by leading small towards heartQ in dummy. Fearing that declarer would now have nine tricks via a spade, two clubs, two diamonds and four hearts, North decided it was his turn to duck, but now declarer switched back again to diamonds. Her nine tricks consisted of a spade, two clubs, four diamonds and two hearts.
