South opens 5club and that becomes the final contract. After some thought your partner leads heartA. To lead an ace is often the sensible approach against a big pre-empt, but not on this deal. South ruffs, crosses to clubA, pitches a diamond on heartK and ruffs a heart. You find yourself on lead with clubK after South has exited with the queen, West having followed.
