South was elated with his 24 high card points and allowed thrm to inducer a slight case of euphoria!
South should not waste time trying to take spade just go after spades from the top. Lead the ♠A and another spade. Continue the suit at needed in time. south will have two spade tricks which brings him to ten, and can take the diamond finesse if wishes to try for an eleven trick. taking the diamond finesse with the intention of finessing spades if too dangerous. True, if the ♦Q is onside and if the spades behave, you can get twelve tricks, but if the diamond finesse loses, the defenders may be able to defeat you by playing more diamonds.
Once in Paris on a rainy day I dropped in at one of the bridge clubs and I was matched up with another player when I showed up without a partner. All through the match, whenever he made a mistake, he would say, "No Man is perfect". Later I found out that his name was Norman.
