Rightly or wrongly, this particular East led club6. Declarer wins with the ten and rattles off five club tricks so you, as East's stand-in, decide to ditch a heart and two diamonds, while partner throws diamond2, diamond3 and North heart6, spade3. After a spade to the ace and spade back to declarer's queen, partner petering with jack and ten, North leads a diamond to dummy's king and a another back to his ace.

You have left spade96 heartQ107 diamond- club-. What do you discard?
