Tale of two and three deuces in bridge play
West opens with king of hearts and East overcalls with ace. South counters by misdirecting with a queen of diamonds plan, but West defeats the tactic by playing a deuce of spades on the diamonds. The resulting play leaves South helpless as East clinches the sequence with a heart and club ruff.
