Let's say you decide on club8 - a neutral choice considering that the bidding has shown that declarer will be attempting game with little to spare. North, who started with clubAQJ, now rattles off five club tricks. Partner was dealt club76, and three discards he finds are diamond2, diamondK and heart3, while declarer sheds spade6 and diamond5.

What will throw on the two long clubs?
