South's misplay costs a bridge contract in Aces column
South misses a winning plan after ducking the diamond jack and leading a trump. West wins the ace and diamond ten, East ruffs dummy's queen, and South loses three diamonds and the trump ace for one down. Proper play requires cashing four black-suit winners first to force West’s ace and stave off the ruffing sequence.
