Well you have exactly three ways to get your 12 trick:

HA onside

Spades behave

H+S squeeze

 

So, first we try to lead up to a heart asap. If you lose to ace in the back, then you cash your tricks leaving two small major cards in hand(one of each) and 2 spades in dummy.

If opp ducks first round of heart(which is a good line of play) then you will have to try you best to read the hand - but generaly try for a similar situation to the first one

I doubt that there will be many declarers, who will make the contract if West ducks the first heart smoothly.

You'd think so, except when you play a second heart they're blocked and the squeeze works. I can't see a robot or human ducking twice with AJx.
