You bid this to 6S and get the 2D lead. What line would you play? (Nice slam isn't it? The datum was 1430, damn - thought we'd pick up a bit!)

I'll take my chances on taking ♦A, ♣K, cash ♥A, ruff small ♥, play ♣AQ discarding a ♦ and a ♥, and let ♠9 run. Later on I'll ruff my last small ♥ with ♠K and finesse again in ♠. If they take my ♠9 I'm also home (unless something else went wrong in the beginning - then I'll have to change the plan I guess 
).
).

think i'd win the diamond, ♥ to the A, trump a heart, club to the K, trump a heart, spade to the A, spade back, toss a heart on the ♣A and a diamond on the ♣K, other top diamond and ruff a club...
this seems ok if trumps are 3/2, and might make an overtrick if ♠Q drops

Let me try. Winning the lead at hand, cashing ck, ha,k, h ruffing back, cashing caq, discarding d from dummy. then cashing DK, if LHO ruff, overruff, then h ruff back, s9 ruff.
