Choose to declare. Ruff the spade. KD. AD. Ruff a diamond with the 9H.
AC. Exit with a low club. In order to prevent two club ruffs in dummy,
east must ruff this trick and return trump. Win in dummy and lead good
diamonds. When east chooses to ruff, overruff. Then a low heart to dummy
for more good diamonds.
