If the attacker has a higher ATK than the defender's DEF, then the defender is destroyed. No damage is dealt to the defending player's lifepoints unless the attacker has a special effect that allows it to do so.

If the attacker has the same ATK as the defender's DEF, then nothing happens. Neither monster is destroyed, and neither player takes any damage.

If the attacker has a lower ATK than the defender's DEF, then the attacking player takes damage to his life points equal to the difference. The attacking monster is not destroyed though.

What yugioh makes your opponent choose a card from your hand and guess what it was when they attack a monster in defense?

Sounds like Ordeal of a Traveler. The effect is applied when the opponent attacks (does not have to be against a defence mode monster, or even a monster at all). He must select a card from your hand and correctly guess if it is a monster, spell or trap, or his attacking monster is returned to hand.
