Contract:place it wherever you want for maximum score
  (you are south and the opponents do nothing but pass)
Lead:heart

What is your play to achieve the largest score possible on the hand?
********************************************************************
Let's try 5C and see what happens. Win the AH. Cash QD. Cash AKS. Ruff
a spade. Cash AKD pitching hearts. Ruff a heart with the 6S. Lead your 
last spade in this position:
	H:x
	D:xxx
	C:4
H:T9		S:Q
C:T75		H:K
		C:KQ8
	S:x
	C:AJ93
case A:west ruffs. discard a heart. West has no safe exit. You lose only one 
       more trump trick. Make sure you win on dummy if ruffing a heart. 
       Otherwise smuther the TC on a trump return.
case B:west pitches. Ruff. You lose only two trump tricks.
