Being a total result merchant, I think West's hand is worth another try - heartK is a big card and your spades are good. I suppose it somewhat depends on whether you would expect East to make an advance cue bid of four of a minor with a big hand and spades. Assuming that you are East in 6spade, how do you play on club3 lead?

You win clubK in dummy and try the spade finesse which wins. Now what?
