  1. East Gets Stuck:
    East has 2 spades. the hand likely has 3 or 4 heart. South can play heart king then Heart 4. North get heart A in hand and then lead Heart 5. South can trump it, Then lead trump. East get into its hand with spade A. If east has 3 heart only then North and South make the contract. If east has 4 heart then the thing become complex. Just my thought.

  2. AK of H, ending in hand ruff a diamond and throw East in the Lead.

  3. Play the H K, followed by a H to the A and a H ruff back to hand. Then lead a trump to E’s A. If E held 3 or less hearts, he’s endplayed. if he held 4 or more, ruff the heart return and depending on the pitches play the clubs for, probably, W holding the A.

  4. On the 4th trick, play King of Hearts, then the Ace of Hearts, then lead last trump in dummy , throwing East in. Whatever he leads gives declarer the 10th trick.
