I've got a real powerhouse overcall here.

Pass and double surely is out.

I'd try 5♣, hoping to hear 5♦ from partner....
Kind regards,
Harald

What on earth would you do instead of 2♥?

Lol, seriously? Why do you make comments like this? If you added a single jack the the hand I bet you would say "What on earth would you do instead of doubling?"

Sorry yeah, I didn't consider that it might be good enough to double first. It just didn't cross my mind. I just looked at it and saw a typical max vulnerable overcall (which I still think it is) but maybe it's a better hand than I gave it credit.
The difference between theory and practice is that in theory, there is no difference between theory and practice, but in practice, there is.
