Lead is ♥K. RHO will encourage, what's your plan?

Just to make them feel really bad, high-five partner when he tables dummy.

Then I run the ♣9, pitching a heart.
Seriously, I'd win the first heart and lead a spade to my hand to play a diamond up. So that's probably the only way to go down ...
If you put an accurate skill level in your profile, you get a bonus 5% extra finesses working. --johnu

You had to be careful here, or you could go down!
LHO had 2506 and RHO 2461, playing a diamond prematurelly gets you down if you didn't draw any trumps or get rid of heart comunication. If you did, you also had to be careful and avoid covering ♦10 on second round of the suit, scoring ♦KQ on the end.

Perhaps I've missed something, but if I carelessly play ♥A then ♦J, I can't see why I would go down in 4♠.
If RHO withholds his ace and LHO takes two ruffs, they can't draw any of my trumps, so I make nine trumps and a heart. If they take ♦A and one ruff, then play back a trump, I get eight trumps, a diamond and a ruff.

... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn
