IMO Normally, you want to reach 4♥ but this hand is hard to bid. With the bad breaks, on a preternaturally lucky day: :)..
West 1♠ 2♠ AP
East 1N 3♥ or even better 3♦ :)

But the hand might then end up in the laws forum :(

Seems like the Chinese internet spying has now reached such levels that they can even check for a bad trump break at the start of the auction. Seldom has BBF resulting been so blatant.

But even that is not enough :blink:
I always collect poor scores on these hands for the failure to bid 2♥ over partner's 2♠:D

Whenever you're void in your partner's longest suit, you have a misfit. So I think you ought to be a bit pessimistic unless you can find a fit.

There are 11 HCP in a big red hand with a nice 5 card ♥ and broken 6 card ♦ suit. The hand only becomes a big player if partner has fit with you. So I'd be reluctant to consider it a game force hand and would make a forcing 1 NT call on the hand. If partner bids 2 ♠, I give it one more try with a 3 ♦ bid. If partner persists to 3 ♠, he plays it there. 3 ♦ also gives partner a chance to bid 3 ♥ on a weak 6-4 major hand.
