Declarer can guard against a 4-1 split with North holding
four hearts including the ♥J, provided Dummy's ♥Q is not played on the first or
2nd trick. The ♥Q
must be kept in Dummy (combined with the ♥10) for a possible finesse
against North's ♥J !
If, on the other hand, South holds four hearts including
♥J, Declarer will
always lose one heart trick and there is nothing he can do
to prevent it.
