Hi,

The alternative is 4D, but 4S is fine as well.

I really dislike 4♠. Once partner shows Spades, slam is a very real possibility.

The right bid on this hand depends a lot on agreements. 4♦ is one (obvious) possibility. If you don't play splinters (or this hand is outside your range) then you need to make a forcing bid of some kind. 3♣ or some such...

Whatever the merits of 4S, it does not necessarily end the auction.

4D, if Splinter is on the card. 4S shows a balanced 4-card raise and about 19HCP (for me). Failing to splinter denies the hand to splinter.

If we do splinter, is partner meant to cue-bid ♥ if he has a singleton there? If not (and I suspect not!) then we will miss a lot of very good slams even if we do splinter.
