Endplay Finishes South’s Four Spades in Clever Bridge

In a North-South vulnerable hand, South finds a sequence to win four spades after careful planning. East signals by opening diamonds, West leads diamonds, and South uses a combination of A K trumps, heart finesses, and a club ruff to force East into an end position. The decisive discard on the ten of hearts completes the tactic and yields the tenth trick.
