Hi Dear Mr Wolff
This hand is too subtle. Not only diamond to the K on first round of trumps would have been fatal but also to lead A of trumps before leading club K . And perhaps east could have ducked club K and false carded nine. Now fearing a club ruff, declarer just might have laid down trump A and suddenly the contract becomes impossible to make.

Lucky the East and West hands weren’t swapped.
