I would double and expect partner to leave it in unless he has significant extra shape/offense. Obviously the space ace is not a great card, but I do not think partner will be pulling just because he has singleton spade. I would almost never pull with a 15(43) shape or a 1633 shape, unless the honour structure looked really weird. x AKQJxx Axx xxx would pull for example.

Sure X. If partner was joking, they make, but my partners never have humour.

You play with too many Germans, Roland! :P :D

I rather like the 4 bid. The risk of missing slam isn't high once they overcall, and it's easily compensated for by the +690s and +500s we're getting from the overactive BBF community.
