North led spade3 against West's 3NT. spade6 was played from dummy, partner played spade9 and West won with the king. Declarer played ace and two of diamonds, North following with the six and nine, and after due reflection the ten was played from dummy. After winning with the jack South switched to heart8 and declarer covered with the nine.
