I double, maybe partner can pass and I'd be happy to play for penalties.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

for the given colors I would prefer 3♦>X. However if the colors were = or reversed I would probably X > 3♦

double, keeps the space open, we have an easy 3♥ rebid later if parner didn't find no trumps yet. With 3♦ we put too much pressure on him, some afwul 3NT might be reached when he has somehing like QJ in a black suit and Ace or King in diamonds.

We should always assume 2/1 unless otherwise stated, because:
- If the original poster didn't bother to state his system, that means that he thinks it's obvious what he's playing. The only people who think this are 2/1 players.

Double. Especially as partner cannot double without a conventional meaning: supportX.
My problem comes when/if partner rejects penalties.
How can I get my 16 prime with solid hearts shown?
