I published another article on Bridgewinners. http://ift.tt/1x1KMJg
That article has the whole hand. But I'll give you the short version. After eight tricks have gone by, you have the following position, with the lead in dummy.

By the way, I got an e-mail this morning from noted British bridge author Barry Rigal, suggesting that (with a bit of clean-up) this was worthy of submission to The Bridge World. That made my day!
