MPs scoring. opps playing acol, with LHO guaranteeing 4D and 5+C. What's your lead?

Club. Sorry partner if that was devastatingly wrong.

♠K.
I don't consider pd's double to be of the Lightner variety, because their 7♦ sounds more like a save (over 6♥ which was presumably bid to make) rather than a freely bid effort.

hearts will be good unless its a ruff and discard. But ruff and discard is likelly enough to dismiss it. I go for the passive ♠K.

Partner doubling 1C with 10 hearts is likely enough... ?

This is just an extremely bizarre hand with them being r/w lol. I would think for a very long time, that's for sure :)

If opps lack club ace, it won't vanish. The ace of hearts might easily be ruffed. Trump is lol, so spade.

Approximate hands above (ignoring changed pips). I was the 7D bidder at the table. In reality, it didn't get doubled so I was destined for a top anyway, but LHO led a heart which allowed me to get out for -1. No-one else got to slam with the EW cards, so doubled -2 would have been a second top for them (losing to a 5Hx+1).

It would have been interesting to have East on lead vs 7C too :)

I suspected partner liked out spade overcall, but not that much!
