Lead heart10 to stick East on the fulcrum of a delicious see-saw trump squeeze. If East throws a diamond then you allow heart10 to hold and ruff a diamond to establish the ten. On the other hand, if East throws a club then you will overtake heart10 with the queen to ruff a club. In short, you will establish a tenth trick by ruffing out the suit East abandons.

This was the final four card ending ..
