North-South were playing Precision Club and after the artificial opening the auction followed a largely natural path until North bid 4club - a cue-bid agreeing spades. South's 5spade invited a slam if North's spades were good.

After East's lead-directing double of 3diamond West's diamond6 lead was to be expected. How would you plan the play after East has won with diamondK?
