I'd bid 2♣. This has several advantages:
(1) It's probably a better partial than 1NT, and partner can pass it.
(2) If partner has a maximum with some kind of club fit, he can raise.
While it's occasionally possible to miss a game this way, I think you will find most of the making ones while still keeping the auction low when partner is minimum.

- Interests:My personal interests are my family and my friends. I am extremely concerned about the lives and futures of the kids (and their families) that I work with. I care about the friends I have made on BBO. Also, I am extremely concerned about the environment/ ecology/ wildlife/ the little planet that we call Earth. 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?

I would rebid a simple 2♣. I have a minimum 6-4 hand that is not suitable for NT play. I do not consider passing 1NT (or rebidding 2D) to be advisable. Admittedly, I could wind up playing in a 6-1 fit when we have a 5-3 fit in diamonds (a price for playing walsh). If partner has a good 10-11 per your system, there is nothing to stop P from taking a third bid. Describe your hand.
I am curious: what other rebid were you considering?

I think the hand is a little good for 2♣ inspite of the heart wastage. I think I'd try 3♣ at IMPs, but 2♣ at MPs.

13 HCP, nice distribution, but a void in PD's suit. 2C for me, all the way.

2♣. If QJ of spades were the king, I'd try 3♣. As it is I lack quick tricks to make 3NT a possibility.
By the way, pard can still raise to 3♣ if he has a fitting 11 count.

2C.
I dont really care, what
responder has, I show were
I live.
With kind regards

PS: 3C is a overbid by at least
1 1/2 Ace, since it would be inv.
opposite 6-9, the usual range for
a 1NT response.
