We've started opening a bit lighter, plus maybe this was never worth a 2/1 to begin with, so I elected to respond 1N and was a bit surprised/worried to find myself playing it there.
I won the opening spade lead with the Q and knocked out the ♦K. A spade came back, won in dummy. I tested diamonds, then led a low club to the Q.
When I ran diamonds, East pitched 2 hearts, giving me a chance to take the rest. But, I was happy to have 9 tricks. Not sure what was right.
150 was 11/17. It appears risking 120 to gain overtricks would have laid 3-2 odds.
