This deal came up in an online bridge game between two expert teams. As nobody was vulnerable, East and West took the opportunity to chime in and bid spades. Against the eventual contract of 4♥, West leads the ♠2. East wins the ♠A, cashes the ♠Q, and switches to the ♦Q. Plan the play to score ten tricks.
