Partner I have about 8 or 9 points and at least one 4 card major.
3NT
Partner I have about 10 to 15 points and at least one 4 card major.
4NT
Partner I have about 16 or 17 points and at least one 4 card major.
5NT
Partner I have about 20 or 21 points and at least one 4 card major.
6NT
Partner I have about 18 or 19 points and at least one 4 card major.
7NT
Partner I have at least 22 points and at least one 4 card major.
Notice that these bids are the exact same as they would be if Partner opened the bidding 1NT and you had a balanced hand with no 4 card major. You show the same hand but when you go through Stayman Partner now knows you have at least one 4 card major. (This doesn't actually matter since the 1NT bidder denied having one with the 2♦ bid.)
So on ALL these hands Partner opened the bidding 1NT (15-17). You decided to bid 2♣ (Stayman). Partner then responded with 2♦. That response says that Partner has NO 4 card major. It says nothing else about Partner's hand. With that in mind it is your turn to bid. What will you respond?
Hand 1
