Underruff

BUT WAIT!!!!! Someone screamed inside you – is not a 100% line available? Did not you see the count when you crossed in A? You might argue that why should they give a count here, but in real life we give count for thousands of defensive situations and we generally do that by our habit. I can assure you that almost no one will give the false count at second trick. If that is true then you know your RHO is dealt with 5  and 2  and he can either have 3 3 or 4 2 ( other distributions are not supported by bidding and you can not make the contract for those distributions). So please win K and ruff a , ruff   and ruff another , if A does not appear, carefully cash your K and ruff 3rd . On 4th when your RHO ruffs high (he has to do that to prevent you from getting the 10th trick) you smartly discard your remaining and claim the contract, you need not under ruff this time.
