I would have opened 2♠ to begin with (not your style - ok).

I would have bid 2♠ over 1♥. I don't understand dbl with 3 points ad it wouldn't occur to me.

Having psyched a dbl I bid 4♠ now and hopefully the opponents will be as confused as my partner in the play. :)

(In fact given the bidding up to this point pass probably has a lot going for it as if I bid 4♠ the opps know I have a distributional black 2-suiter.)

Double means a different thing on this side of the world.

We have 10 trumps, we must try to buy it at the 4 level.
