pass...I don't often look to make things worse. If 3S comes back around, I might try 3NT for the minors ---and I might not.

Dead easy pass, in fact.

Opps have spades, but I'll be pretty glad to let them play those :)

My plan is to put dummy down on the table and maybe get myself a coffee if I feel like one.

The looks like an easy pass noting partner opened 3♥ at favorable colors so we can't expect him to have the perfecta that makes game easy.

Pass. And if partner looked at the vulnerability, I expect to go one off as often as to make.

I wouldn't be shocked if he went down more than one. :)
