Problem:
The Auction:
West   North   East   South
           1        2*    2NT
pass    3NT    all pass

* - Michaels cue-bid, at least 5-5 in the majors

In a pair event, where the scoring is matchpoints, you reach 3NT after East has advertised both majors. West leads the 8, East plays the jack as you win the ace. When you play a diamond to the ace, East drops the queen under it. You are now assured of nine tricks. How do you propose to try for a tenth trick?
