Playable in two more strains yet priority to show stopper without ducking possibility.

Dbl of 3d is (poorly) defined as penalty giving it bad options on 2nd turn. Then it's also bad that your 4c only shows 4+ clubs.

Wonder why not 3H - perhaps it shows a potentially much weaker hand. Double being penalties is obviously not a good system.
Still, I doubt you'd be writing this post if you'd passed 3NTX and scored up 1150 You've got a nice hand, it's probably worth the gamble. Also surprised you didn't pass over 4HX when you hold ♥A10x.

I'd still write it ahydra. Generally I don't worry about results as much as GUBBO's bidding screwups. I wasn't aware double would be penalty as Stephen Tu points out.
And 4C seemed "safe". Yes, I could risk and pass 4H. Thought better to play in 5-2 than 4-3.
