No doubt your are wondering where all the points for this auction have come from, but anyway, the double seemed to Anthony to call for a diamond lead, so diamond10 is on the table. Declarer plays low from dummy and partner plays the queen with declarer dropping the Jack. Partner switches to heart6 and, after some thought, declarer plays the nine.
1.Do you win the King?
2. If so, what do you play next?
3. If you play a second diamond, what do you discard when partner wins diamond9 and cashes the Ace?
