playing in a moysan fit in spades you just discovered the 5-1 break by winning a trump in dummy. Now to make all tricks you have to carefully avoid throwing away your heart on first diamond as it might be needed to enter dummy later. You have to do it on the second round.

Director! Why has everyone else got 6 cards left when I have only 5?
