Scoring: IMPs

In Bulletin 7, this hand was reported where Rodwell was one down in 5♠X.
But, there seem to be only 9 tricks and 4 losers.
Does anyone know what happened?
That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

Let me speculate. It went ♦ ace, ♦. When South won ♠ ace, he played ♣ to ace, got a ♦ ruff, and later got a ♥ for down 3. However North had revoked at some point so it was adjusted to down 1. Sadly this was all lost on the vugraph records when the software foolishly prevented the operator from duplicating the revoke.

If for some reason I can't imagine N/S don't play ♣, after they get ♦A and/or ♠A, than E/W can drop West's ♣ on East's 4th♦, losing only ♦A,♠A and ♥K.

Click for more details, assumption this is correct as shown.

So the opening lead was ♦ ace. Certainly it could go ♦ ace, ♦, win ♠ ace, get misleading discard from north, play ♥, now down 1, not 3.
