South wins by ace and small diamond in spade duel
Jacoby on Bridge notes a misplay where South leads queen of spades after trump pull. If West lacks king of spades he must hold king of diamonds, making diamond finesse fail. South can play ace and a small diamond, risking defeat only if West holds three diamonds to the king. in fact West has king and one diamond, allowing South to make the contract.
