Control and defense against four spades at the bridge table
In a four spades contract after West leads diamonds, East must seize control. Facing a 10 card fit with North, the defense can force a ruff by overtaking the diamond king with the ace, discarding to a singleton club, and returning a diamond four to set up the opponent’s lethal ruff. East’s discouraging diamond four prompts West’s heart shift, and the sequence yields three-plus defense tricks. The key is decisive high cards, timely discards, and ruffing power to thwart the contract.
