# showing 4 spade and 5 heart

This found one me wanting in a bad way. West has shown five hearts and four spades but what about East? Would he not have converted to 2spade with three spades and two hearts? Probably at this form of scoring, so aautomatic trump lead therefore stands out. On my club lead declarer was able to ruff a spade in dummy and scraped home with 110.
