You were dealt this monster on the last board of an otherwise placid pairs tournament... and your partner is a GiB robot refractory to the logic of slam bidding, although you can assume it is your preferred human partner if you (comprehensibly) so prefer: I'm interested in both situations.

Your call now, and how do you evaluate your chances?
Ok, I'll bite. 2♣. 22+ or 8 playing tricks, I think this qualifies

I would hope to convince the opponents that it is their hand and they need to double to protect their score for a major suit game. I open 1C and I am virtually never passing afterwords, though I will respect partner's double of a slam.
