Your limit raise is 3h in case it matters, and you open most 11s.

I don't actually think all the poll options are reasonable, but they're all available for you.

3 spades. With such an anemic suit, partner probably has 6 of them anyway, and this gets my hand off my chest.

3H if this is your limit raise.

I prefer 2NT here, though agree that 3♠ might work well.

IMO 3♠ > 2NT >>> anything else.

2d was multi? I'd bid 3♣, though it's horrible and I wouldn't know what to do over 3♠, but if it goes 3♣-3♦/3♥ I can safely bid 3♠.

Besides playing for fun, most people also like to play bridge to win
