West led a more conventional trump, so South won in hand and led diamondJ towards dummy. West shot up with the ace and continued trumps, so declarer won and attempted to establish the fifth diamond. When the diamonds failed to oblige declarer was able to fall back on the heart finesse for a twelfth trick.
