In a problem hand from a Fun City Region event, declarer faced a choice between two finesses and risked missing a slam. South, after North's raise and East's bid, chose to cue bid diamonds on the second turn. A diamond ruff, three rounds of trumps, and a losing spade finesse left declarer with little room. One line succeeded by using one finesse and preserving trump help, while another drew all trumps. The key lesson is to keep enough trumps in dummy to cover a failure in a finesse.
