:P I can see playing 3♣ as artificial with a regular partner, but I really think that the default meaning is natural. It's not a bad way to play it imo. Say you are 5-5 in hearts and clubs. You want to coax a heart preference, and 3NT may not be best with a misfit.

I guess standard is artificial, but I play it as natural.

Now I play 2NT as patern out please, so 3♣ must be nat, but evenwhen I didn't, I played it as nat.
