After successfully reaching 6♦ (see
Bid this in your favorite system in the non-natural systems thread how you got there - opponents were silent)

you do not receive the actual lead that I got (which made things easy), but a non-descript small ♠ instead. You now see:

What's your plan?

[kgr]

I would try ♠K that looses to RHO's A and I ruff.
I cross to dummy with ♣A and take the ♦ finesse, that looses to LHO's K. (or ♦ are 3-1).
LHO plays another ♠ that I ruff. Now I play all ♦'s except one:
-
QJ
-
Kxx
vs
-
Ax
x
Qx
Now I play ♣Q and ♣ to the K (on which I see that clubs are 4-2). I now try the finesse in ♥ and this looses to LHO's K.
...Bad luck or bad play?
My feeling is that squeezing LHO (4 ♣'s and ♦K) is worse as you can't test clubs to be 3-3.
Also playing on a double squeeze (LHO ♥K, RHO ♠A and both clubs) - does it work? - seems to be worse as you can't try ♠K.
And you don't have enough entries to dummy to ruff out the ♠A.

Ruff S. Play C to K and take D finesse. Ruff second S. Draw trump and cash CQ. Run Ds.
In 5-card ending dummy has SK, HQJ, CA8. I have HAX, Dxx, Cx. When I play 2nd to last D I pitch SK (unless of course LHO pitches S ACE ). On last D LHO is squeezed between his HKx and C109.

Spade K, I dont plan on a squeeze play or throw in. I dont expect teh K to make, but try it as theer is no cost.

Club to King.

Finesse a Diamond. (2-2 with king onside or 3-1 with stiff K with East and we make)

Pull trumps when in. Assume a trump lost.

cash Club Q.

Club to Ace.
Were Clubs 3-3? If so discard small heart.
I suppose if East has played the 9 and 10 you can finesse.

If not take heart finesse.
