this hand reminded me of billw55's thread:

favourable Matchpoints, reasonable opponents.

1♦-x-2♦-2♠
3♦-4♦-p-4♠
5♦-???

you are 100% sure that 4♦ showed a good raise of spades.
you are 80% sure that if you pass, it's forcing.
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.

I'll try pass then pull double to 5S. If pard has Kxxx Qxx xxxx Ax he can go to 6.

I'm into shooting 6♠ and will get back to average with a +120 aganst everyone elses +110 on the next board.

Too many hands where pard has the K♠ and a side Ace that make this and he has a touch more, hopefully working cards.

Unless I have some table feeling, it is so unlikelly tht opps are bidding all the way with only 14 HCP.

this rules out slam, and its a matter of double versus 5♠, again knowing RHO might help, but I am more inclined to give him credit and bid 5♠.
