Imps and assuming that pass is encouraging.
From Psych "I mean, Gus and I never see eye-to-eye on work stuff.
For instance, he doesn't like being used as a human shield when we're being shot at.
I happen to think it's a very noble way to meet one's maker, especially for a guy like him.
Bottom line is we never let that difference of opinion interfere with anything."

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

IMO Double = 10, Pass = 4. You stretched a bit on the previous round.

My ♥ holding is perfect for a forcing pass but my overall hand is not.
I think we are at least 1 critical card short to suggest grandslam to pd.

I would DBL.

Suppose pd has

Qxxx
xx
AKx
AKxx


KQxx
xx
AKJ
Axxx

etc

He will be looking at AK of trump suit and pd suggesting grandslam, he will think we have the rest covered or close to be covering, but we are not.

I admit there will be hands where he has a giant and all he needed was to know we have a void in ♥ suit ...But imo it is small target to aim at (pd holding 19+ hcp all fitting)

"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."

What would suggest 6S if partner has 5x good spades for his double?
Does Forcing pass suggest 6S or only 7D is on the table for consideration?
