Problem: This hand came up in the Round-of-16 Vanderbilt match-up between teams captained by Bart Bramley and George Jacobs, at the recent St.Louis NABC. Mark Feldman of the Bramley team reached 6♠ as South (hands rotated for convenience) after a complicated auction, the opponents remaining silent. Plan the play after the ♣Q is led. Remember, the scoring is IMPs and the objective is to ensure the contract.
Hint: If Diamonds divide 3-2, the hand is simple. If diamonds are 4-1, can you think of a way to guarantee the contract? You need not worry about giving up overtricks!
