It really depends how good your opponents are. I would play them for bad ones

I will play LHO for 2326 and RHO 2452 rather than RHO 1453 and duck the 9♠. So I would ruff ♥, ruff ♦ high, draw trumps

Also that 10♣ cant be a false card, cause dummy is Q9x - I might easily have 3 small♣ Nevertheless, if it is a false card oh well wrong table

Unless I'm missing something RHO has 0463, LHO has 4324. So I can just ruff a heart, club to my hand, lead a heart they ruff in 8, I overruff, ruff a diamond with the king and hook the spade ten.

Ah Yes wrong counting I would play RHO for 1462 then rather than 0463 because 10♣ could cost a trick if my pd has the J♣ so I would play they have misdefended rather than 10♣ as a false card and duck 9 ♠

Plus if LHO is 4324 and my 9 is covered by 10♠ I would come in hand with ♣ and ruff a ♥, ruff ♦ high and finess the 8♠.

Yep, run the ♠9 looks best at this point. Lefty is 3325 for sure.

This time lefty had ♠108x, running ♠9 was the winner.

I would have played LHO for 3325, but why does anyone need to run the ♠9 lol? From the position in the diagram, just ruff a heart low, cash ♠Q, cross to ♣J, play another ♥. Dummy is down to ♠Jx and a diamond, we have ♠Kx and the heart we just played. LHO has two trumps and a club.

I thought the main question was our read of 3325 vs 4324. Maybe it's better to run the 9 and lose to stiff T, just so that the 4-0 can also be catered for.
