Heh. From the Wikipedia "A natural 1NT opening shows a balanced hand".

Me: Tell me about your partner's 1NT opening.
Opp: It's natural.
Me: Could he have some 5-4-2-2 distribution?
Opp: Sure.
Me. Then it's not natural.*
Opp. !?

*The balanced hands are 4-3-3-3, 4-4-3-2, and 5-3-3-2.

"natural" is not the same as "normal" or "standard" :rolleyes:

But "standard normal" is quite natural...
