Partner is famous for his wild preempts - at least NV. Opponents are intermediates.

He leads the ♠4 (3rd / 5th - not low) - low. You decide to rise A and declarer ruffs.

Declarer lays down the ♣Q - 2 from partner (udca).

Declarer crosses to the ♦A....4 from partner

and leads a low heart from the board.

Your play.

♥A and another, expecting partner to hold a singleton and ♦KJxx OR! small heart, expecting partner to hold a singleton ♥10 or doubleton 10 and a diamond combination that'll produce two tricks... I'll go with small heart.

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

Besides playing for fun, most people also like to play bridge to win

can´t see what is going on, I´d duck thinking declarer is 0364, I can´t understand why ♣Q was played at trick 2, maybe he realised the club pitch was useless too late, but then he is 0292? I don´t think overtricks matter then.

i agree with the duck mainly because if p had a singleton heart there is a VERY
good chance they would lead it unless their dia holding is such that they do not
want to ruff (KQx for ex). declarer might be 0364 0463 and we need at least 2
heart tricks to defeat this. Our best shot at 2 heart tricks would seem to be ducking
(p won trick with stiff heart honor you say great) :))))))))
