W leads K of and East signals with Q.
W then underleads and East wins 2nd trick with J
East now plays J.

This is actually quite easy but fun hand.

Gotta be from a match I didn't play because I don't remember anything. Can't find anything fancy to do except finesse hearts and perhaps play for J10 dropping

No, this was posted in a closed group in facebook https://www.facebook.../Noname.Bridge/ and i was told this will be published in EC bulletin tomorrow(today your time) so I thought it was a hand from there. It was not.

Come on you can do better than that. It did not take me too long to figure it out and if I could you can too easily. You must be tired. It is easy but it is cute 2 card ending! (hint!! Posted Image)

I wrote that initially, then edited it out thinking it didn't matter, then remembered why I wrote it and edited it back in :P

This is a variation on the stepping stone squeeze. Suicide squeeze refers to one of the opponents squeezing their partner on the run of winners.
