North-South had blasted their way to seven clubs on the uncontested auction1C (1) - 1D (2)
2S (3) - 2NT
3C - 4C
5NT - 7C
(1) Strong, artificial, and forcing
(2) 0-7 HCP
(3) Huge hand with long spades
Michelle's partner led the jack of hearts, declarer covered with the queen, and Michelle ducked! She knew there were plenty of spade winners to cover the losing heart, so wouldn't be giving a trick away. Declarer's 5NT was asking for good trumps, so she knew that the only trick for their side could possibly be in the club suit. When she ducked smoothly, declarer found herself very conveniently in dummy to take the trump finesse...

Very neat;
but at this level surely declarer would not expect West to lead the J from KJ and so perhaps should have suspected the actual position?
This is cool and very organized. Thank you for sharing. arvada concrete patio
