            N-S Vulnerable

            South   West     North    East

            1NT      2♠         3         Pass

            3NT      All Pass

 

West’s frisky 2♠ overcall is brushed aside and South becomes Declarer in 3NT.  West leads the Spade Ten, won in Dummy.  There’s a trap for the unwary on this deal, and today’s Declarer fell right into it.  But our readers won’t, will they?
