Okay here goes. Partner's hand is:
x
AQx
AKTx
QJTxx
3♣ is a violation of Burn's Rule and will be doubled by LHO, he has K9xxx. Hearts are 5-0 but that does not matter much because you can crossruff, elope and whatever.
Or you can go down in 2♦ or 2♠ undoubled. Or in 2NT or higher doubled.
3♥ would be 530 but do you dare?

Change partner, he played for opps. Was this game for money?
With missfit in your suit and lot of HCP and poor own distribution to bid 2♦ your p can have several reasons to not dbl
:1. He/she hate you
2. One of opps was female/male dream of your p.
3. He/she thought about tax-collector.
4. He/she had new narrow shoes.
5. He/she just finish his supper and most of blood serve to his stomach, instead of head.
