Bridge hand play fails to deny contract in heart heavy deal
South misfired on the first heart, revealing the ace absence and enabling Bast to defend. West led a fourth heart, leaving three higher hearts unseen. Fast switched to clubs, hoping for tricks, but South's king blocked, allowing four club tricks and heart ruse to miss, with defenders taking eight and defeating the contract.
