Please be aware this is posted in the N&B forum - nothing too far fetched :lol:

It would be nice if you have some way of both showing diamond support and inviting slam (while reserving the right to play in 3N or 4N). (Bonus: Going slow lets us find 7 if partner has the magic hand for it.)

Barring that, I'd blast 6 or 6N, depending on partner's declaring skills and the field. Maybe with a nervous partner who doesn't like going down I'll bid only 4N.

Hi,

6NT

Obviously you can bid 6D as well, but bal. vs bal.
You have 32, and you have undervalued Aces,
and you are NOT 4333, go for the optimistic route.
The alternative being 4NT quant.

With kind regards
Marlowe
