At some tables East was there with an old-fashioned 3diamond, "intermediate", whereas others preferred a more modern approach with 2diamond. Those pairs players with an eye on an opportunity bid a confident 1NT and, despite South's bounce to 3heart, 3NT became the final contract. How would you play on South's unexpected clubQ lead?
