On the first one ....One thing I'm certain of: partner does not have 4 spades.


Where did you get that from? Double and cuebid DENIES 4♠? I've never heard of that proposition.

You are right, it is possible that partner has a balanced 25-count with 4 spades. Most other hands with 4 spades would bid 2S, 3D, 3S, 4D or 4S.

I think this is a superior way to bid. I also think it's completely non-standard. In fact I bet there are a lot of players out there who always cuebid on hands where you would make most of the bids you mentioned.

What can I say... my partners bid superiorly, I knew that already.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.
