Endgame plan in bridge hand by Oswald Jacoby
In this bridge deal the key is Norths diamonds and a sure entry to them. After winning the first heart South should play ace king and three of diamonds. East gains the lead and a heart return risks Souths exact eight or nine tricks. If East returns a spade South must not cue the queen but play the eight as a safe entry. West wins the ten, but continued spades allow South ten tricks. setting up hearts preserves nine tricks.
