This is the way I see it. To answer this question you have to start by asking a 5000 feet up type question: "If my team is gonna euchre the maker how is that most likely going to happen?" IOW what will be the typical anatomy of a euchre in this spot? And the answer is pretty simple. The overwhelming majority of the times your team euchres the maker it will be because your Right and your 9 of trump BOTH take a trick, and then your partner somehow gets the other trick. If your 9 doesn't take a trick that usually means game over on the euchre front. After all, given that you hold R+1 and the dealer called trump in that suit it is very difficult to imagine your P ever having 2 tricks in his hand to save the day. So your 9 of trump must take a trick for magic to happen. So when S1 leads into your void with a diamond and S2 plays the Ace, you gotta put your 9 of trump on that and pray the dealer has another diamond (it's not like you have other voids to wait for, this is it). If the dealer overtrumps it no big deal. The enemy is still not getting 2 points, and you did your best to go for the euchre which is all you can do.
