We had already won the battle but this hand secured the war for our opponents when they stayed out of an unmakeable slam that was bid at many tables It’s necessary to underlead the ace of diamonds to hold the contract to ten tricks.  We won the match 12-8; a 14-6 win would have enabled us to win the event.
