Help
Han and brianshark said the line I took at the table.
small from dummy (keeping the tenace in tact), win the ace, club club club ruff with the 9, ace of hearts jack of hearts finessing.
If LHO has 3+ clubs and if trumps are 3-1 with the queen on your home, or 2-2 with the queen on you're home, or 3-1 with the queen OFF you're home (when LHO shows out, you win the king, ruff the 4th club and exit a heart and claim). If trumps are 2-2 with the queen off and RHO has 3 or less clubs you're home.
If trumps are 2-2 with RHO having 4 and the queen you can test for Qx of spades then finesse diamonds.
If LHO has a doubleton club and no HQ you're home, if he has the HQ he will overruff you and return a diamond and you'll have to guess the position (but can be a little better than a finesse).
This line seems far stronger than anything else suggested.
Best line in slam?

WHat happened?
"Gibberish in, gibberish out. A trial judge, three sets of lawyers, and now three appellate judges cannot agree on what this law means. And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."

DQ on left, DT on right. I don't know where the SQ was. Hearts were 3-1 with Qxx on left. I don't know who had 4th club. Heh, when my heart jack won i just pulled trumps, crossed to spade ace, and hooked a diamond for 7. Didn't look at what the layout was sorry.
