You get the ♣3 lead (playing 2nd/4th). Plan the play.
If you test diamonds
If you ever decide to play the queen of hearts on the first round of hearts, RHO will drop the jack.

The ♥9 falsecard from ♥J9x makes sense.
Here, the ♥J false-card gives you a near cinch, with no need to finesse ♥s.
Start with 3 ♣s, 1 ♥, and 3 ♦s
(Hit Next in the diagram on the left).
Now, as the cards lie, 3 ♥s squeeze RHO in the pointed suits.
If LHO had 4♦s, 2 ♠s would squeeze LHO in the red suits.
Better defence might be for LHO to duck 2 rounds of ♣s.
