Play for the Overtrick

Posted on by 0 comment

From a recent hand on BBO: You are South in four spades. West leads the queen of clubs. Here is your hand and dummy:

It looks like you will make at least five spades. But you are playing a pairs game (which means matchpoint scoring), so it would be nice to make six. How are you going to play for 12 tricks? Hint: Note that West overcalled 2 ♥ in direct seat.
