You are playing 4S and LHO leads the ♣A followed by the ♣T. Your plan?

From what I see, W does not have both ♦ honors or he would have led one. He did not lead ♥ so I expect him to hold at least 2 of them. So I expect W to hold something like 0256 (if he has 1255 better for me) It will probably come down to guessing who has the ♥ Q if that is the case but I will play E to have it I guess.

I cover ♣T with the J of ♣ because I can not afford East to discard a diamond on ♣T Posted Image I need him to follow the diamonds as I ruff.

A- E ruffs ♣J with 6 : Then I over ruff and ruff a diamond to dummy, come to hand with ♥ finesse and ruff another ♦ play 3rd ♣.
a1- If E discards a ♥ on 3rd ♣ I ruff and play 4th ♦ and ruff in dummy, E over ruffs.(their 2nd trick) and if he plays ♠ he has AQ left, if he plays ♥ I win in dummy and play ♠ and claim.
a2-If E ruffs with T on 3rd ♣ , I discard a ♦ (loser on loser) and play a spade from dummy when in with ♥K.

B-If E discards a ♦ on ♣J : So do I. and rest is same as before.
