After the lead of the K we can see that we have to lose 2 clubs, and as the A and Q of are missing, we have to work this suit in order lose only one trick. As we are
in dummy with the A , the first impulse is to play the 10 and let it run, so if East has the Queen we capture it, thus making the contract . But if we think about it ,we will know that this is no a good play because if East has the Queen he will always win it when he over ruffs the fourth club, so the play with the best probability is to play and win with the K and then play a so that the Ace and Queen fall in the same trick.
