mmm, my first impression is to pass, we have not enough extras, but then I think, what possible 2 tricks can we lose? Slam might be on a finese, but against the non preemptor. I bid 4♣. specially if my partner is named Nuno, who bids 3NT with ♦Kx

If opener passes, LHO will proceed to cash his AKQxxx of hearts. Ooops... It will still be 30% of the MPs, as many couldn't avoid the doomed 3NT. Only 6/29 pairs found the slam. Preemptor had the following assorted junk: xxxx xxx QJ8xxx and got away with murder.
