A very reasonable BIL problem. The hand is an open book. If you don't see it, think harder.

Seems like people found this one too easy to answer. Indeed one can count out the spades and realize that nothing can be lost by ducking (since spades are 4333 around the table). Declarer isn't likely to get this correct if you duck, but it's a trick to them if you go up.
