2S is obvious, is it not?

2♠ is reasonable, unless you are part of the significant minority who have agreed 1M-2m-2M is nonforcing (in which case 3♠ is the standout.)
There may well be a case for 3♠ anyway, if you agree that it shows this kind of concentration in spades, rather than just a little bit extra in values. What DOES 3♠ show, for those of you who wouldn't dream of anything other than 2♠ on the posted hand?

If partner has 11 or more diamonds, who am I to over-ride his trump suit?

Hi,
4S.
Depending on vulnerability, this may have been a 4S opening.
With kind regards

3S would show a hand, which has a strong desire to investigate slam,
6S that is.
With the given hand, you either now bid 2S followed by 4S, or 4S direct,
it is certainly a mood point, one way or the other as long as 2S is forcing,
playing with a stranger I am not going to risk this, playing with a regular
p you may have discussed the difference.
With kind regards

Historically, any jump bid in a forcing situation shows a solid, self-supporting suit
I vote for 2♠, or open 4♠

2S - Pard just bid your void which devalues your hand signficantly..Opening 4S is also a possibility but I dont like this missing both the Q and T of s..
