This was from a teams-of-8 match tonight and it looks to be very easy, one of the tables did go down however.

It's easy as long as LHO plays low to the first diamond. But what if he plays the J or T?

Then I'm hoping they run.

I can't tell the difference between trying to cash diamonds and hoping I can afford to duck a heart or two from LHO.

The heart position was a moot point anyway. LHO had stiff ♦8.
