When the hand occurred originally, West bid 2diamond! I cannot imagine any modern West bothering with that - it's either pass or pre-empt with 3diamond or even 4diamond. North passes and East leaps to 5diamond, doubled by South. North leads heart2 and South wins heartAK and follows with spadeAK.

Remembering that this is pairs, how do you play?
