Help
How good are my opponents? Are they good enough to come popping out with a surprise diamond lead? Then I'll settle for 2♣, albeit a little heavy, planning to rebid 3NT over 2♦.
Otherwise, I'll go with 1NT.
What do u bid?

No. These opponents are bad, they always make exactly the lead they hope you make.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

1NT for me. I can live with 2♣ too, but prefer 1NT.
Kind regards,

How much more of the world's habitat and food supply for animals do we plan on destroying. How many more wetlands are we going to drain, fill, and build on? How many more sand dunes are we going to knock down in the interests of high-rise hotels or luxury homes?

1NT for me, although IMO, the hand is almost too good for 1NT
The advantage of 1NT can be that it makes it easier for partner to know what to do, including should P happily have 5 hearts. It just seems to 1NT is the more partner-friendly value bid.

Which is it? 1NT immediate OR 2NT over likely 2D?
