Matchpoints, weak field.

♠J ♥73 ♦AKQxxxxx ♣952. W/W

RHO opens with a "Bailey" Weak 2. A Bailey shows this: 8-11 HCP, 5-6 hearts, 2-3 spades, and not more than nine cards in two suits.

Assuming you overcall 3♦, it goes 4♥ on your left, p, p.

3D and pass? Sounds like that 4H bid is "genuine" rather than PRE.

I bid 3♦, 5♦. RHO took the push with Axx KQxxxx x Jxx, (LHO had Q9xx AJT x AQTxx). It was pretty easy to beat with diamond lead, spade shift. 5♦ would have been 300.
