Solution
  • Declarer must reduce his trumps to the same number as West.  He must ruff four times and therefore needs four entries to dummy.
  • Win the first trick with the K or Q.
  • Ace of clubs, heart finesse using the queen, ruff a club, Ace of hearts, ruff another club, overtake the king or queen of diamonds with the Ace, ruff a heart, Jack of diamonds, ruff a heart, and then lead a spade to dummy’s ten.
  • West is endplayed.
