    En passant - A favorably-placed low value trump, located behind 
opponents' higher trump. Spades are trump.  
Declarer leads Dummy's 
HA.  East can ruff with the 
S9, but then 
    loses DA to South's S2.  Had East been on lead, West 
could lead the S9 first, knocking out declarer's low trump to win an 
extra trick. |
