Playing at a Regional over the weekend, partner and I reached 3NT on
the following hands:

	S  A 3
	H  T 8 5
	D  A Q J 8 7 2
	C  K T

S  T			S  Q J 8 7 4
H  A J 7 6 3 2		H  Q 4
D  T 9 4 3		D  K
C  J 9			C  8 7 6 4 2

	S  K 9 6 5 2
	H  K 9
	D  6 5
	C  A Q 5 3

Partner is declarer, opening lead is heart 6 to Q and K.  Partner
had no trouble making the contract.  At trick two he led a diamond
from hand and called for the Ace, felling the King to take 9 tricks.
I congratulated him later on making this contract, as I would have
taken a finesse and gone down.  Turns out he looked over at dummy and
thought he saw A K Q of diamonds, so he naturally played high on the
first trick!
Well, we take 'em however they come...
