In the first [[contract bridge diagram|diagram]] clubs are trumps and South could claim all tricks on a [[crossruff]] were it not for the trump in East's hand. When the club jack is played, the entry-shifting squeeze comes to his rescue.
If West sheds a heart, the jack is overtaken with the ace, a heart ruffed and North is left with the last trump and a master heart. If West chooses to discard a diamond, the club jack is underplayed with the five. North's club ace ruffs the diamonds good and the South hand wins the last two tricks.{{Clear}}

The entry-shifting mechanism works also in No Trumps, as can be seen in the next example.

As only five tricks out of remaining six cards are required, this is a squeeze without the count. It is not possible to rectify the count as there are not enough communications between the two hands. The entry-shifting mechanism will overcome this though.
South leads the {{Diams}}A and West has no good discard. If he discards a spade, the {{Diams}}J is played and South continues with a spade to the ace and the spade eight. West returns a heart to South's ace, but the diamond king serves as an entry to the established spades. If West chooses to discard a heart, the diamond king is played and after ace of hearts and another heart, the {{diams}}Q will serve as an entry.
