I agree 3S as invitational but not forcing. Pd can pass but are encouraged to go on.

Hi all,


Completely agree : 3 is invitational, showing a good 6-4.
So if I have to hang somebody, I should choose West, because he have to accept the game with a near maximum hand (I imagine 1Nt is 6-10), a support in spades (the 10 !) and good diamonds.
My grand mother, full english spoken, used to say : "bridge veut dire silence" !

Guess you misunderstood it. What we meant(at least me) is that 3S is invitational, not that this hand should bid 3S to invite.
