Is 1NT forcing? How strong is 2♠?

:lol: 3♦. Probably ought to just bid 4♠, but, I guess, the hand is worth a very mild slam try just in case partner is 4-5-4-0 or 4-5-3-1 with just the right cards. The idea would be to win four spades in one hand and three ruffs in the other along with four diamonds and one additional top trick. Partner will have to drive the bidding to six; I'm through and ready to settle at 4♠ after my 3♦ bid.

4♠, could be made. I don't see any other possible contract.

Would 3♥ show ♥ shortness and a good hand for spades?

If not then 4♠.

4♠: I'm going there anyway, and game tries probably help only the opps on this hand.
