Here is one that come up 2 times in same day.
hand AQ108x ..... dummy xxx
Suit is trumps, both time IMPs, entries to dummy not a problem ...
a - 1st time - for 4 winners
b - 2nd time - for 5 winners
To make 5, play to the 10, and later to the Q to catch KJ(X) onside
To make 4 play to the Q first and to the 10 later. The improvent of this is that if east has J sgl, it will droped under the Q and you wont lose more then 1 trick now, while if you played to the 10, you would lose another trick to the K9xx onside.
while if east has K sgl, playing the first 10 wont help you more then playing the Q.
