I held this hand twice in the same tournament !
something like this
AKQXXXX
JX
AXX
X

I opened 1S partner replay 1NT which is 5-11 semi force.
The first time i bid only 3S and after being the only one off game i have bid 4S the second time. Is this a clear 4S ?

4 is normal, you already have 8 tricks and can't find out what partner will have for you.
After 3 partner will not raise when he's looking at a singleton spades, while that's no problem.

I play 1 - 1NT - 3NT as a solid spade suit, partner may judge to pass or bid 4.

I also play 1S - 1NT - 3NT as a good spade suit, but not this sort of hand, I think it should be something much softer e.g.

AKQxxx
Kx
Ax
Qxx

p.s. did you edit the post at some time? either the original hand had 14 cards or I'm going blind

I play 3NT as a similar hand, maybe with a little more outside values, otherwise this is a clear 4.
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!

4S, not 3NT with a small singleton.
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

Surprised by these answers, I like 3N.
