At the table North bid an extremely conservative 3club, but he and his partner still stormed into 6heart and East led a diamond. This is a fascinating problem, all the more interesting with the Pairs scoring format. You can expect several pairs to be in 6club, so a successful contract of 6heart should bring in a good score and therefore you should play safely. You win and play a heart to West's nine, your queen and East's two. Over to you.
