Scoring: IMP

1♣-1♥
1♠-2♠
4♠


LHO leads the ♥2 (3rd/low) to RHO's KING!

Do you have a plan against:

A ) A low heart return
B ) A low club return

A ) sluff club, lose to A♥ setting up two remaining hearts as winners, with west back in the lead like I'd prefer. Another heart lets me overtrump or sluff, and a club or diamond lead with declarer playing 4th hurts them.

B ) Take with A♣. If RHO leads a low ♣, he likely doesn't have the king. With an 8 card fit, there's a reasonable chance that they'd trump in on a 2nd club trick.

I have no idea if that's the "right" answer, so at least not easy for me :-)

Edit: never mind, didn't notice the jack was also out. Seems like a crapshoot.
