Bridge Deal of the Week (Jan 11 2008)

Problem:
You reach 4♠ after an uncontested auction. West leads the ♣5 (playing fourth best leads), East plays the king and returns a trump, you win the ace. At this juncture, there are several reasonable plays that lead to success. The declarer at the table chose to play a diamond to the ten (standard count), queen and king. East returned a diamond to dummy's nine. When a second spade was played from dummy, East discarded a diamond. How do you plan the play against best defense?
