The only way to 100% guarantee this contract on any lay of the cards is to win the first trick

with the Queen of Spades and then to lay down the Queen of Diamonds at trick 2.

 

If the defenders let you win the Queen of Diamonds, you will lead out all your Clubs from the top,

making 3 Spades, 2 Hearts, 2 Diamonds and 5 Clubs.

 

If the defenders take their King of Diamonds and lead a Spade, you just cash another top Spade

discarding the Ace of Diamonds, making 3 Spades, 2 Hearts, 5 Diamonds and 2 Clubs.
