Re: Problem J1-corrected version
I noticed a mistake in my earlier submittal.  This is the corrected version.

   WEST			   EAST
S: KJ975		S: AQT86432
H: JT			H: AQ
D: T98			D: AQ
C: AJ8			C: 9

	Contract: 6 Spades by East
	Opening lead: K of Clubs

Well, you finally got to a good slam, one that it looks like you might make.
Since you would like to keep this partner, how do you play it?  What do
you think your chances are?

What do you think of this format, where appropriate?  It saves several lines,
often allowing a problem to be complete on one screenful when otherwise
it would not be.  Comment in your answers or submittals, or by mail, not in
separate 2 line articles.

From the opening lead K of Clubs, one can be pretty sure that South's lead 
is from KQ of Clubs.  The right thing to do is to overcome the temptation
of taking KC by AC.  Instead, one should play 8C from West.  Now, South 
has to either under lead from his QC, or lead into your AQ of H or AQ of D,
giving you one extra trick you need.
