MP instant 34

Unfortunately a double by me of 3S is pre-described as takeout.

Still, well guessed West, to play in a 6-2 fit instead of 5-1.

I don't really understand why East is bidding 2N.

True. I understand less why E then passes 3C. Or for that matter, why your double of 2NT is essentially undefined, giving no additional information to partner beyond the opening bid.
