Scoring is MP.
Plan the play - in the case opps are GIB, but it should not matter much.

I was surprised about the number of people who went down in this one - decided to share the board.

Why are you surprised? If someone is over ruffing 4th ♠ from doubleton hearts you go down.
If you take ♠ finesse you could perhaps make, but then you go down when it is off and losing 3 black tricks + a trump.
Assume you played for spade ruffs, you can also go down when 3 trump holder over ruffs 4th spade with 8 of ♥ and they cash 2 clubs and play 4th club one of them ruffing with J or Q and they get a trump promo.
