Bidding
W N E S
. . . .
West- East bid this slam, which has a commonly missed point in the play.
The bidding was
West    East
1NT.    2H (Transfer)
2S.      4NT  (Quantative - make sure your partner plays this)
6S.     ( 3 S and maximum - 13 with 3 tens should be enough)
North leads 10D You have plenty of tricks if trumps behave- So how do you play it?
If you need a hint , It would be different on a heart lead.

At the table most people escaped a Heart lead but went off when they finessed the SQ. North held J93 of Spades and South K4. there were two Spade losers.
Do you see now that West can lead the 5S and run it? This wins whenever North holds J9 and also if he has the K.(West finesses the Q next time if the 5 loses to the9 or J). 

If you got it wrong ,join the club-I did too!

I suspect that there must be lots of situations where we could have Two goes to find the missing cards, but we take a more obvious direct method too quickly and can never catch up.
