It's difficult to be sure how East-West were playing bids like East's 3club. Did it show tolerance for spades? Did West's pass show tolerance for clubs? Anyway, the force was not with East on this occasion and he duly led spade10. Ten tricks for North-South and +630.

East's uninspired lead was rendered virtually irrelevant by goings-on in the other room..
