You are East and hold AKQT7 / 32 / 97 / A984
The bidding proceeds
S W N E
P P 1C 1S
2H P 3C P
3D P P P
Partner leads spade 6 and dummy comes down with
542 / A8 / AQJ / KT732

How do you defend?
If you continue spades, Declarer and dummy both follow to the first three rounds. Partner plays spade 3 on 2nd spade and discards heart 4 on 3rd spade.

Especially interesting is how you would actually play at the table, which might be different than pondering a posed problem.

Cheers,
James
