"I was lucky on three counts - the ten of clubs was in dummy, so was diamondA, and you were sitting West, so I made nine tricks. Had you sensibly led spadeA then after your partner's discouraging signal you would have known a heart switch was called for - I make eights tricks. Of course, had you been inspired then you would have led a heart originally - I make seven tricks. "
