2♣ what am I missing? My hand is probably better than RHO's so I don't want to preempt myself with 4 hearts on the side.

Don't really consider any other alternatives to 2♣.

Is this a serious question? 2C is the most obvious bid I have seen - even if you play Raptor.

You bid 5C red against white, or am I reading the vul wrong?

I thought the options being suggested were 2♣, 3♣, and double. 5♣ didn't occur to me!
