South won the spade in dummy, cashed diamondA and ruffed a diamond, crossed to clubA and ruffed another diamond. On clubJ he threw dummy's remaining heart and followed by ruffing a heart with spadeA! By this time East was down to spades only and he could do nothing to prevent South from taking three of the last four tricks. North-South +620.

South was the Argentinean wonder-child, Augustin Madala, who was 13 when he played this contract. Just like you in your early days.
