This is a regular hand i think i might have misplayed today, its just a regular hand so dont look for something special.

1 (P) 1 (P)
1nt (P) P (P)

2 was lead (explained as usually 4th best)
To the J of east and my Q.
Mp with an intermidiate field and opponents so i would be happy to make some overtricks.
Not sure how should i played this, maybe start with a a spade to the 10 ?
I started with heart to the Q which lost to the K and diamond came back.

to the 8.
Win 2nd and finesse again, 89 % for 2 tricks. I am already ahead of the game with the lead, and hopefully opps will start attacking a major.
I already have 7 tricks, and 8 very likely, and with breaking 4-4 possibly 9.

where's lho's entry?... K probably, and K, Q or K,J.. so my rho is probably as dangerous as my left...

i like mike's line, but since he said it first i think i'll try another... duck a spade, duck the diamond return, win next diamond and see if spades split.. if not, lead a heart from the board, ducking.. 2 hearts, 2 spades, 2 diamonds, and a club or two i hope

Club to the 8, duck the 2nd diamond, take the third and repeat the club finesse.
Other lines may work as well.
