If the trumps were 4-0 then South would have a few clubs, and if they included the jack then declarer's clubs could be used to ditch dummy's diamonds. Accordingly declarer unblocked dummy's clubA and led a heart to ten and ace, South pitching a diamond. When South's clubJ fell on the third round of clubs the deal was virtually double-dummy - so how did East continue?
