GRAND CONUNDRUM

A conundrum. See if you can make 7 Hearts on the King of Diamonds lead, East petering with the nine to show a likely doubleton.

(1) Roman Keycard Blackwood agreeing Hearts.
(2) Zero or (clearly here) three of the five ‘Aces’ (including the King of Hearts).
(3) Playing the Specific Kings Method (recommended), this asks partner to name their Kings, cheapest first.
(4) King of Clubs.
(5) Perfect – only the third round of Clubs is a mild concern. North realizes their low Diamond will disappear on the Ace of Spades.
