As the auction unfolded I did not like the sound of it at all, At least the spadeQ seeed like a sensible lead, but when I saw in dummy my first thought was "Gulp".

After a pause, declarer player low from dummy, Ben played the king and this held the trick after another pause from declarer as he contributed spade5. Ben now switched to the diamond6, bringing the jack from declarer and I won with the queen.

What next?
