Normal auction and play. After the spade lead, I cashed one round of diamonds to see the spots. Then I tried heart finesse, but hearts were not in. From the diamond spots I felt diamonds were 4-2, so I tried throw in. GIB West, unblock the spade 10, saving the 3 to let East get in the to cash good clubs!
