When holding Axxx trump with 4-1 break facing a 5-3 fit, it is usually adopting a forcing game (as the opening lead suggest) and thus by ducking twice one can effectively pose a dual threat:
- eliminate the trump policeman if declarer insist to draw three round of trumps, and continue the forcing game
- ruff declarer's winners with the small trump if declarer stop to draw trump
For the actual hand it is quite interesting if NS is defending 3♠ instead: South need to take the ♠A on the 3rd trick to gain a vital tempo and force declarer in ♥ but not ♦. Of course it will be quite double dummy as declarer is hiding a huge ♣ suit.
For the declarer side, one should immediately turns to develop his side trick once finding that trump break 4-1. Drawing the 3rd round trumps will be fatal.
For the second deal EW should aim for 7♦ if ♠ behaves. And one should guard the possible 4-1 breaks in ♠ when playing 6NT, by playing small to J first - i.e. crossing to dummy in the 2nd trick.
