Problem


The Auction:

West North East South
          1
3♣ 3 Dbl 3NT
Pass Pass Pass  
       
       

South opened with 1 in third seat. West overcalled 3♣. North responded 3. East passed. South declared 3NT.

South can count on three top tricks – two aces and the ♣K, plus five tricks in diamonds. How many tricks can South win?

The overcall meant West holds 6-8 clubs, so not surprisingly West led the ♣Q,

Vul: none

Contract: 3NT by South
