All vulnerable.
After 1H P 4H I'm up. My hand is J9xxx void Qxx AKxxx
First question is whether I pass.
I doubled. It continued Pass Pass redouble.
Would 4S show something like this? Better perhaps if we disagree with my first pass? Seems like it should but Idk.

Would 4S bid be running/distributional?

Hi,
#1 most would pass with your hand, but going in, ... why not.
Live by the sword, die by the sword, the risk is lower playing IMPs.
#2 I guess, 4S now would show something like your hand, ..., 4Sx ill be
cheaper than 4Hxx, if it makes.
Having decided to go in, I doubt it, would not rule it out,
I would stick it out now.
With kind regards
Marlowe

I would not double here.
But if I do and it comes around to me redoubled by RHO, I am not worth 4S and 5C is a shot in the dark, I pass and let partner decide. He already passed double, despite imagining better honoured spades than I have: he knows about my void and that minors may be 5-3 or 4-4. Maybe he has great hearts and can set the contract, maybe he can scrape up 4S or 4NT or 5C/D, maybe he doesn't want a beer.
