(a) yes, I might have joined with 2H earlier.
(b) no, First, why not bid earlier?
Second, because LHO's preference to 2S, he probably
doesn't have many clubs, there's a danger of misfit.
somewhat a guess work, if I trust pd seldom preempt with 3 in a major,
4H can hardly be right. even you have good fit, their spades rule
everything. whether to bid 4D is another issure, with this hand, you
cannot see a clear defense against their game, so don't push them.

On reflection, I think doubling 2C is probably the least dangerous.
Overcalling 1S with 2H can easily solicit toll-free, or sticks and wheels with
this vul. In contrast, it's much safer to balance if they find a fit, and your
hand has some defensive value, too (C ruff, 2 A) so a late entry to the
bidding is not that bad, i think.
In reality, the lefty had JTx xxx xx KQTxx (!) and choses not to raise to 2S
and only took preference. And righty had AKxxx KQT K Jxxx. So the par is 4D
our way.

double 2C. on a weak day, I might pass 2C, but I still would balance.
I bid 4H. once a long while, pd may raise me to 5H when he holds something
like this:
Sxx Hxxx DAKTxxxx Cx
anyway, 4H costs nothing. it also suggests a good lead.
sometimes, pd may hold Sxx Hxx DAQTxxxx Cxx, against 4S, I do wish
he could find H lead.
DA Dx seems good, pd should have some cards in H, so just follow his
suggestions to draw trumps.
6D. pd sounds a like a huge D suit with distibutions:
Sxx HAQxx DKJxxxx Cx is a

Did I miss something?

Stay quiet and lead the diamond J...
If I passed in the first place, doesn't make sense to bid now.

Hehe every day's a weak day for me...
You are on lead against 4S. Pd's hand was x xx AQTxxxx Kxx. On the table I
tried 4H for double shot, and convinced pd to raise me to 5 after lefty bid 4S

This is interesting, I have to admit that I did miss the point of 5D, though
I don't quite agree with it. Let's put it this way, if 3D made the image blur,
maybe, 5D made everybody blind. you are convinced or not, one thing is for
sure, you are creating a swing here by doint that.
Theoritically, it depends on what day is today and how you evaluate your
opps, something like "do they look like morons" must be observed carefully
before taking the action.
Practically
