5♦ looks safe if p have x AQxxx xxxxx A(K)x good chance for 5♦ to make. 4S will go down 3 if everything breaks and placed perfectly thou. If everything breaks badly 4♠ may even make.

Pass, before I push them to slam.

6♦. Not sure who can make what, but in huge double-fit hands it's usually best to play offense. Let's see if LHO is brave enough to try for 6♠ now...

5 ♦, with both red, pd won`t have x, QJtxx, Jxxxx,xx, so maybe I can make it...

I doubt, that they will be propelled to slam. LHo did not bid a strong hand, so LHO will need a distributional monster to make slam. And in that case he will often find it himself.

5D for me as well. I will not sell out below the 7 level. My objective is just to buy the hand as cheaply as possible.

5D...probably down 1 losing 3 clubs. I would probably x 5S at mp's and expect to set it 1.
