Not many players bid 6NT and then the making is relatively straightforward. It is worth your while to work through this hand with your partner to realise it is often good to slow down the bidding so that you can explore all avenues, rather than jumping to contract in haste.
When East opens 1S and you have a beautiful 20 point hand, with cover in all the suits, you must surely be looking for slam (20 + 12 = 32 HCPs between the two hands). How you go about deciding on final contract will depend on your partnership agreement - but jumping to a 3NT or 4S game contract is NOT the way to go. With no competing from NS you have no pressure and you should take your time, according to your partnership agreement, to not miss this opportunity.
