Double in the part-score battle. Partner will choose the best suit, knowing that you don’t have a biddable second suit. Partner will only opt for a suit other than hearts if he has a five-card suit.

20/20

This bid gives a fairly accurate picture of your hand, but you lack one heart. Your partner might pass 2H if he has five cards in another suit and no heart fit.

10/20

This is definitely an option, though a bit passive. Letting the opponents play too easily at the 2-level often costs a lot of points.

05/20
