Hand 12 at CBC in the afternoon on the 24th March 2017.  A fairly poor session for us overall, rather than focus on the negatives, here is a good board !  This is a lesson in taking your tricks, if you do, partner may signal to continue to take more.

Here, if EW take the A♠ and get a positive signal, the K♠ is then taken and a ♦ led back - this means with the A♥ too, 4 tricks are taken and contract is held.  In theory, this would be a good result as 4♥ is available for 620 (beating the 400 for 3NT held).  With us, small ♦ led which I win in hand.  Win a ♥, lose a ♥ and another small ♦ led which I win in hand.  Now I run ♥ then ♣ for 12 tricks.....

Admittedly, it helps that our auction included a 2♠ cappiletti bid (showing ♠ and a minor) so a ♠ wasn't led trick 1.
