On the diamond lead, our priority is to set up the club suit. We don't want the third round to be won in hand, so we should first play the king and jack from the short hand. West can see dummy and will probably hold up the ace until the second round. If he returns a heart, then we have a slight problem, because we need to set up a spade trick as well. We must hold up the ♥A until the third round and hope that the opponent with ♠A has only three hearts.
