Too much?

Club game, timid partner (client) who gives you lots of leeway in the auction and pretty much does not double the opponents ever.

You hold AKJx Jx T9x Axxx, w/r. You open 1S in third seat, LHO passes, partner bids 2S, unknown old man doubles, you pass, tank 3D on your left, insta 3H on your right. You double.

Is this too much considering you've probably already screwed them, or is it a good matchpoint action? How do you rate your chances at beating them?

Oh, and you do play drury, but partner probably wouldn't do it with anything better than a very good 9.

With a passed partner who can't find a Drury response I'd not double here. Heck, I've got nothing in the suits opps have bid. And partner stayed silent over 3♦.
Kind regards,
Harald

We beat them so all was well, I just think the way RHO bid as a passed hand they are done so often and we have 3 tricks.
