Impossible Six Diamonds Coup in Bridge by Becker
South reaches six diamonds after a spade lead and a diamond ace out of East. Declarer executes a trump endplay against West by timing ruffs and cashing A K hearts and A K spades, forcing West to overruff or underruff into a losing position. The final line uses a trump jack to secure the last two tricks. The discussion ends with a note on the abacus used by Romans for calculations.
