Agree with the above. I would make a bid that gets me to 3D - transfer or whatever is in my system. Blow mss!

Sorry. The hand as I was given, is a non problem. The actual auction started with 2N, not 1N

Over 1NT I am a big believer in having a way to show specifically HHxxxx in a minor and nothing else, opener to bid 3NT with the fitting honour and otherwise stop in 3m.
Over 2NT, I am not tempted by anything other than 3NT at pairs. Even at IMPs I can see quite a few hands where 10 tricks is the limit in either strain, to balance against the times we can't run the diamonds.
