When the hand appeared originally South won diamondA and cashed two top hearts, all following. He then had to decide how to return to hand to draw the last trump, eventually playing a club to the jack losing to West's king. Declarer played dummy's diamond9 on a second diamond from West, won by East's queen. How would you have played when East returns diamond7?
