A spade was led from dummy (South) and however West defended, she could only take one trick. North over-ruffed West's first diamond, ruffed club10 with diamondQ and led another spade to leave West helpless.

In an International Ladies multiple teams match only this one declarer made 6diamond despite its almost universal declaration.
