Wonderful!! Partner has opened the bidding with 1NT showing 15 to 17 high-card points and no-trump distribution. Now, what are you going to do??
Even though partner has opened the bidding with 1NT, you are now the Captain of the Bidding. Why? Because partner has described and limited his hand. You know partner has no voids and no singletons, and you know partner has at least 15 points, but no less than 17 points. Partner knows nothing about your hand. Let's look at ways to get most out bidding and playing your hands.
