After some wild bidding, I became declarer in 6 with only one ace. A hopeless contract you might think...
West started A and continued, after some long pause, with a small club. I started on a cross-ruff line by trumping diamonds in my hand and hearts in dummy. After a few rounds east erred by ruffing, which I over ruffed. Now I was able to ruff diamonds 5 times and cross in spades (to pull all trumps) to obtain my 12th trick with the last diamond.
