That doesn't necessarily mean the dynamic sampling wasn't happening - it may mean that with the correct cardinalities the optimizer was still inclined to choose a bad plan.

    |With just dynamic sampling I get a good plan but I noticed the cardinality
    estimates for tableA were off, so I added the cardinality hint for tableA and the |plan went back to the previous plan when not using dynamic_sampling.
