mb|p|mb|p|pc|d5|nt|kit: Other room got to 3NT on previous board, so match just about even.|pg||

nt|kit: By overtaking, he guarantees 4 spade tricks.|pg||
nt|kit: I see that he did, in fact, pass 10 of spades.  But now I have my doubts -- although it sure was successful.|pg||

nt|kit: Of course if you overtake, defense may have 2 spades, 2 diamonds, and 1 heart or 2 spades and 3 diamonds before you get your 9 tricks|pg||
