3NT as 4 seems too much.

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the 3.

I'd bid 3 NT

"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."

3NT and feeling very confident about it. Would be more weary if our singleton spade were a small one.

We've also survived a 1 overcall by either opponent.

I've almost convinced myself 3N is cold!

Given that this hand found its way onto the forum, you might not be surprised to hear that the unanimous majority would have been unsuccessful on the actual deal.

We play that 3H shows either long hearts or a club stopper. North can ask with 3S after which we bid 3NT to show the club stopper.

3S directly shows a spade stopper.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.
