Scoring: MP

MP's
1-1
1NT-??
You play T-Walsh and bid 1 transfer to or to NT (you often bid 1 if you think NT is better played from other hand).
I guess this is an obvious 3NT at IMP's (??), but how do you bid at MP's?

BTW: your other biding agreements over 1NT are :
2 asking. Partner will bid 2 with a minimum
2NT: transfer to . partner will bid 3 if he invites a invite and 3 if he feels his hand is mimum if you happen to have a invite.

I don't think it is such an obvious 3NT call at any form of scoring.

How about bidding a natural and invitational 3? Or is that not allowed?

3N? With two potentially open suits? Pard's 1N rebid can be made on many problem hands in this sequence, including 4414, (43)15 and the like.

I would invite in diamonds.

Hi,

2NT, why shoot, if you have the tools?
