You play an honour from dummy and it wins, so you lead a club to the king and that holds too. You continue with another heart to an honour in dummy and RHO wins the ace and plays a third, which you let ride around to dummy, LHO pitching a small spade. You lead a club and, after much thought, play the ten. It wins! Plan the play.
