South decided that the line that would lead to success was to win heartA, finesse a spade, cross to a high club and ruff a diamond. After another top club and another diamond ruff, South cashed spadeA, ruffed a spade and led a club. East was fixed and had to concede a tenth trick.

This was the three card ending.
