Contract: 3 No Trumps by South. Lead: ª10

The lead has given us 3 spades. There are two diamonds and a heart, so we need three clubs and there is only one outside entry in dummy. If clubs break 3-3 there is no problem. With four clubs to K10 on right the contract will fail. The safety play is a low club from each hand and a finesse of the Jack on the second round. This takes care of each time when you can bring home the bacon!!
