Playing teams and at Love All you hold:

 AKQJxxx
and hear the following bidding:

2¹   (3)   X   (P)

¹ = Game going hand or 8 playing tricks in clubs

So what do you bid?

If you PASS you pick up +1100!

Partner's hand was:

 KQJ10xx

The uninterrupted bidding on the other table went:

2¹   2

this contract was now doubled and went for +800 for an 18 IMP swing!

Mr Doubler's hand in this room was:

 A98xxxx

And yes I agree he did have his double.
