2♦. I hope what you said partner will do isn't true, since I intend to follow with forcing bids :)

2D

I almost always 99%+ give up on slam after but one level opening bid in first seat but geez I got a nice hand here. :)

Partner cannot pass 3d rebid\ but I can think of alot of ways of missing 6s.

A straight balancing 4♦ for me. Too hard to find the keycards in pard, so I'll just settle for game.

In case you're wondering, I got 4♦ written down in my system notes as MAJORS :)

I'll try 2♦ and follow with 4♦ (splinter). Depending on how aggressive partner is in looking for slam, I can either pass 4♠ (if I think he would've cued the ♣A even if that's his whole hand) or bid keycard (if I think he would not cue ♣A -- cuebidding ♥K is pretty obvious since it is below 4♠).

I wasn't clear but I'll follow with 3♦, and over 3♠ follow with 4♦. Surely the second time he'll cuebid heart king or club ace, he will know I'm not void in clubs since I didn't bid 4♣.

I have given this hand a second though and now I am sure that the best way to handle this hand is to bid 2♦, followed by 4NT, wich shows no voids, and 11 top tricks, partner should know what to do with any key card.
