Playing online, I pick up a nice hand in 4th seat. After an odd (to say the least!) auction, I had to declare 4♥:


Making 10 doubled was worth 9.47 imps.

Not only an odd auction but an odd play at the end when East gave a ruff-N-sluff with that ♣ lead.... thereby handing declarer the otherwise "unmakable" contract .

I do not understand south bidding, North play and east counterplay :(

At the table, I didn't think of the legitimate line of playing for either opponent to have KQ or Kx of ♦ and hence be forced to concede a ruff & sluff (assuming they don't unblock with Kx). I was just playing for a mis-defence. Happily I got one.
