Miller of Toronto held East and made a dramatic four diamond cue bid to entice West to lead diamonds for a potential spade declaration. West passed, North pursued hearts and secured a spade game after Miller’s bold play. East’s dexterous underload of hearts and clever defense set the stage for a tense, era-defining trick sequence.
