IMP, weak opponents, playing udca.

T1= ♠4,K,T,2
T2=♣J,A,8,6
T3=♥6,2,J,A
T4/5=♦ A and another diamond ruffed in hand. E playing 2 and T, W playing 6 and 5
T6=♣K and discarding a ♥ from dummy, W playing 3 and E 2.
T7=♣T,5,♥T,♣4 !!!!!!!!!!

Defense erred at T7. Take it from here. It is very easy but cute ending.

Thanks Nige1 Posted Image

But I am curious, which part of my line was unusual? I am assuming the part that I did not ruff ♣ T. I simply played loser on loser, to insure W will never hold the hand and play ♠A and another spade. ♣T holding the trick was totally unexpected though as you mentioned.

It is probably unusual to find two loser-on-loser plays in the same hand, one a loser from dummy discarded on a loser from hand and the other a loser from hand discarded on a loser from dummy. It wasn't your fault that the first loser-on-loser play turned out to be a loser-on-winner play!

I agree with WellSpyder. An end-play on a defender, to subject his partner to a coup en passant is unusual (related to a smother play, which is rare too). Few would be sufficiently aware to take advantage of the opportunity,
