This came up in a recent Best Hand tourney, thought it was cute . Probably high beginner- low intermediate, kinda bad at judging difficulty.

The lead is the ♦J. Can you make it regardless of the distribution of the opposing cards?

I'm pretty sure I got it, so I'll spoiler as well

Spoiler

Ruff the diamond, spade to dummy, ruff a diamond. If need be, cash another spade, then club to dummy and club from dummy.
- If E plays Q or J, cover and concede the T to the other one, discarding one of dummy's hearts on the other on the 9.
- Else, play the 9 or T. If it holds, try for an overtrick by finessing hearts.
- When it doesn't and W wins it, he can give you a free club or heart finesse, or let you pitch a heart from dummy on a diamond and ruff in hand. In any case, no more losers.
