You play 6 after an unrevealing auction, and get a trump lead.

2 expert opps opted for different lines, only 1 succeeded, which one would be yours?

I don't see a good end position with a squeeze, so I'll try a combine the chances approach.

Win J and play small spade, hoping east flies ace. If not, cross to T (I'm assuming trumps 2-1) and play top spade.

If covered, ruff and play A, K and up for the best chance for a diamond trick. 7 is an entry.

If not covered, throw diamond and play K, A, to ruff out the queen for the last trick. If west follows with 10 on the second round, I have a guess in the suit.

Take the J and finesse K.
If East covers, ruff, draw trumps, safety play diamonds and park the club losers on the Q and J.
If East ducks, pitch a club and later use Q to pitch a diamond followed by trying to ruff diamonds out.
