Deal 13     6NT OL: ♥10	♠ K Q 5 ♥ A 6 3 ♦ A 8 2 ♣ A J 4 3		Play the ♣6. You would not have been expecting South to play a small ♣ from dummy's holding. The only way it makes sense is if South holds the ♣Q. If you play your ♣K you will win the trick, but in so doing you will set up 3 ♣ tricks for South, which is all he needs to make the slam. Play low instead and South will win his ♣Q. But now your ♣ K 10 sits behind dummy's ♣ J 4 so he can get only one more trick in the suit, the ♣A.  Deal 14
