This loss is just bad luck. we had no reason to sacrifice with 4

.
You may toss a coin to decide, what to do in such situations. Playing Face to face it is a matter of table presence to do the rite. But online no idea, who the opponents are and seeing no emotions, it is better to let them play the par-contract undoubled.

The play of clubs is a bit risky, if I hadn't the 10 along with the Q, partner had found declarer the Q.
South can read the the 8 of diamonds as lowest, so North must have 3 diamonds and declarers distribution is 1624. He can get rid 1 club on the 3. diamond but not 2, so there is no hurry to play clubs. Just play the A of diamonds and another.

The slam is speculative, sure, but has lot of chances. I won many worse slams.
Alas West found a lead, that beats the contract. Against lead of a black suit, you can squeeze EAST in the reds, if he takes the 1. or 2. round of clubs, or you can catch him in a triple squueze, if he refuses the 2 first rounds in that suit.

South plays his last spade and throws a diamond from the table.East is caught in a triple squeeze and declarer takes all 13 tricks. Try the 3 different sequences of play, if he throws a heart, a diamond or the club A.

To view how the play went at all tables, would be the easiest way, if you had acess to BridgeBrowser (BrBr).

You get the access, if you register as member in the HomeBaseClub (HBC) AND play only once in a HBC-tourney.

This time we missed an icecold slam due to my very bad bidding. The rebid 3 is futile. I must bid 3 instead. So we have much more room for investigation and I can show my spade 3-card fit in a forcing situation.

1 - 1 - 3(virtually game force) - 3 - 3 - 4 .......

Sure partner could bid 4 over 3, but 4 is a reasonable bid.

Declarer should realize, that he needs the club hook going, because his line of play besides that it needs spade to be 4-3 (4 spades with South or heart 10 and with North) AND hearts 3-2 , will fail, if South has the K of clubs.
Therefore I had to play the club at once, to give him the opportunity to go wrong. He should'nt go up with the A but try the hook.

Say South's original hand is: QJ83, A3, QJ10xx, Kx then with the adopted line the situation would be after the 8. trick:

South takes now the A of hearts, cashes the K of clubs and promotes another trump trick for partner by playing a fourth round of diamonds.

The only situation where the play club A is rite is a stiff K with South.

Here my partner made a bidding mistake. South should bid 2 diamonds over 1 spade. 1354 distribution, 11 working HCP is a nice overcall.

I couldn't imagine, we had game though my 14 HCP, if partner cannot bid over 1 spade. My best suit is opponent's and in the red I have a assembly of Q's and J's. Guess my pass is automatically, 1 spade will be down very probably, but do I know, if I wake up sleeping dogs, if I bid?

Bidding should be: 1 2 pass 3NT p p p

We had lost 2 IMPs anyway because the 1400 and 1600 other EW produced.
1 spade XX cannot be with me, because South is not allowed to double with only 3 hearts AND a moderate hand.

The par-score is 110, we got 100, so what? In principle South should bid 2 imho. Forget the Q of hearts and you have 6 QT and a good 6-carder. North with misfit in spades and only 1 living trick is not entitled to bid even in balancing position.

We lost 4.57 IMPs on this board playing 2+3 = 200, a score which is a curiosity for my agressive bidding style.

South has a perfect double of 1 heart with 16 HCP, 2 nice suits. Forget your club doubleton, if partner bids 2 , just bid 2 .
My wjo was not cool-proof. I'd liked The K of spades instead of hearts. But in 4. th position I had to bid. In second postion I pass this hand after an 1 opener.

Bidding will go: 1 X pass 4.(South promises 4 spades for sure ore a very strong hand).

Why my partner passed my wjo is his secret.

Declarer should realize, that he needs the club hook going, because his line of play besides that it needs spade to be 4-3 (4 spades with South or heart 10 and with North) AND hearts 3-2 , will fail, if South has the K of clubs. Therefore I had to play the club at once, to give him the opportunity to go wrong. He should'nt go up with the A but try the hook.
