A Brilliant Port of Hearts Endplays West in a Slam
In a bridge hand West cashes two clubs then shifts to a diamond. South by careful play neutralizes the defense and makes four hearts despite appearing doomed. South wins East’s diamond honor, draws trumps, and executes a last-trump squeeze to force West to discard a diamond, leading to a loser-on-loser discard and the contract. The bidding reveals West holds the king of spades.
