This assumes a responsive double denies 4 spades and doesn't have a 5+ minor suit


Is it standard treatment ?
I mean, can't he be 2-1-5-5 or 3-1-(5-4). I would expect my partner to double with both.

responsive doubles are for balanced hands, with 5-5 minors you just bid 4m or 4NT according to strenght.

Nothing. But opps aren't making any tricks but in trumps, so I'm pulling those right away.
