Declaring 5♥ in the South seat, with a ♣K lead, I ruffed and crossed to the ♦J, and was relieved when LHO didn't ruff.

I was a bit surprised when RHO ruffed. As hearts was 3-0 there was no recovery.

Full deal:



Well, all was not lost, even though the teammates performed sub-optimal, missing the grand. 6♣X with thirteen tricks was ok.

It's completely James Bond'ish, holding the South hand, and not being able to beat 7♣ on any lead. (From any side.)

I suppose there is a moral to this story. When in doubt, it is sometimes more important to declare than to declare effectively.
"Gibberish in, gibberish out. A trial judge, three sets of lawyers, and now three appellate judges cannot agree on what this law means. And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."
