West led a low spade which was allowed to run to East’sJ, and East returned a heart won by North’sQ. A low club went to the queen and King, and the8 was taken by theA. East exited with another heart and franco entered dummy with theJ (East discarded a heart) in order to lead a diamond to theQ andA. A second spade lead came from West and Franco showed his quality going up with theA, cashing the last club, exiting with a spade to force East to lead away from hisJ to the10 on the table.
