Problem


The Auction:

West North East South
      1
Pass 1 Pass 2♣
Pass 2 Pass 3
Pass 3 Pass 3NT
Pass ?    

You are North on this deal and your partner starts the auction with 1, which your respond with 1♠ of course. Your partner then goes to 2♣ indicating 4+ diamonds and 4+ clubs. As you have 14 points and a good seven-card spade suit you mean business and call 2 – fourth suit forcing to game. Your partner responds with 3 and you show your spades for the second time bidding 3♠. Your partner calls 3NT. What should you do, pass or declare 4♠?

3NT might be awkward as this seems to be a hand with interesting splits.
