i understand... how do you handle the 6 count, 4153 hands after

1c : 1s
1nt
?

or do you bid up the line with that? or maybe just pass? i think i'd prefer playing in a 5/2 diamond fit, but maybe not

a)you can bid 2c....
If partner bids 2s or 3s you can pass
If partner bids 2d you can pass

b*) you can pass 1nt. This is the option I would often choose since I expect partner to be 11-13 balanced often. We open 1nt often with 2=4=2=5 and 14-16 hcp. Also partner may have bid 2s with 3=2=3=5 shape and poor hearts and 11-13 hcp.
