try ruffing the second spade, hooking 10♦, diamond to the J, spade ruffed and overruffed and now W should defeat you by playing his last diamond to lock you in dummy with spade losers but didn't, it played a club

How about adjusting the declarer play and not ask Gonzalo for adjusting the defense ? Ruff 2nd ♠, hook ♦ T and see 4-0, cash AK of ♥ and discard 2 spades, ♦ to the J, ruff 3rd club to hand and hook again ♦ to make an over trick in the hand you suggest defense can beat 5. Or did you think that J of ♠ was from Jxx ?

why did you play to ruff the 3rd spade? Seems pretty weak to me....what were you planning on pitching on the AK♥? The AK of ♣?

Thanks!, this little adjustements are priceless, the contract was 6♦ = on real life so I didn't even consider 5♦-1 but it should go down then. Now they will return d6 on that position.
I did it to test the software (I used to do this in real life), I bid and made 6.
