I couldn't find my choice so I chose 2♣. I pull out the green card.

Nice one Fluffy.

I couldn't find my choice so I didn't vote. :)

Seriously, why do you feel the urge to bid here right away? I'd bid 6♣ but if partner has something like xxx-AKJxx-xxx-xx 5♠ don't make while we're down 4 in 6♣.

LOL

If these are your only choices, you may want to consider changing your methods. Misho advocates a transfer advance method that does not allow you to show the suit THEY opened in this situation (similiar to what you posted above, so that would not help). However, Ruben advances (transfer advances) help here. I know people who play...

RDBL = rosenkrantz type raise of hearts
1S = natural
1NT = transfer to clubs
2C = transfer to diamonds
2D = good raise to 2H
2H = weak raise to 2H

In two partnerships I play

RDBL = transfer to spades
1S = transfer to clubs
1NT = natural
2C = transfer to diamonds
2D = strong taise to 2H
2H = weak raise to 2H

If you are force to pass, you might here it go 1C-1H-X-all pass. And the option to bid 6C is, well, not very attractive either.

I have 6-9 hcp, their suit stopped at least once, and balanced outside of hearts.

So I bid 1NT.

Oh, c'mon, quit laughing.

Why can't I choose 1NT, I stop their suit and hold 6-9 HCP. This should deny a heart fit too.

Pass, pray opener doesn't penalty pass the negative double, then bid a bunch of clubs later.
