Yes, I'm sure that you would not have bid like this South did but nevertheless she played in 3diamond after an original mini No Trump from East. She was off to an excellent start when West led spade6 to East's three and South's ten. After crossing to clubA declarer led a diamond from the dummy and East played low. What would you do - finesse the ten or play for East to have both honours and rise with the queen?
