You and your partner made some very marginal (i.e. crap) bids along the way to this 5♦ contract. East hesitated over West's 3♥ and then lowers the boom on your 3NT. You are quite surprised when partner bids 5♦ which is not surprisingly doubled. You get the lead of the ♥J. You're not down yet. Plan the play.
