My hand: ♠ 8 7 5 4 ♥ 7 4 ♦ A J 9 8 2 ♣ 7 6
My hand is not interesting or good. Partner never bids and neither do I. They make it to 3NT. Partner leads the 2 of clubs.

2-J-6-8. Dummy switches to hearts. Q-7-3-K. Partner pounds out another club. 5-Q-7-9. Declarer pounds out another heart. 5-4-T-J. Now that partner's clubs are probably set up he shifts to a spade? 2-Q-4-6. Declarer is back to a heart. 6-5 of spades-9 of spades-A. Now a club. Guess they weren't set up, yet. 4-K-7 of spades-A. Turns out he didn't have any clubs set up at all, since declarer now cashes the T. T-3-3 of diamonds-8 of spades.
Now declarer cashes a spade. K-3-7 of diamonds-2 of diamonds. He plays a diamond which I win and then board is up. Just in.

Professor Jack disagrees with all my spade pitches. I guess if partner had actually had spade tricks I should have help them for an exit, but it didn't matter as the hand played out.
On the replay the auction is the same. North leads a club and declarer cashes the Q of spades before playing hearts. He ends up not giving away as many heart tricks so they make an overtrick.
