Pass can't be right - this shows first round control of diamonds and invites a grand slam. 6heart has the disadvantage of being played by partner, but at least you know that diamondK is on the right side after West's last minute sacrifice. Double is likely to be fruitful - but would it be adequate compensation bearing in mind that four off doubled still scores only 700 in the 1960s? Made your mind up yet?
