Partner will not make a new Minor Force with ♠Axxxx ♥Qxxx ♦Qx ♣xx and that might be enough for game...so I think a 3♥ invite is prudent. After all, pard might be 5=5. Gotta love those intermediates...

If you made it too strong to rebid 1N I would bid 2C with this shape. I might consider opening 1N with some hands (soft) but I usually have stiff K to do that.

Where the limit of too strong to rebid 1N is is a personal preference I guess. I would bid 2C with the hand you gave but just barely, I think rebidding 1N is alright.

1N for me too, but minimum for mine is 15, see if partner still signs off with 2♥.

To answer your question there are several questions about your system.
Do you ve got a weak opening with both majors?
Do you ve got a weak answer on 1 diamonds showing both majors?


What´s the difference between 2 clubs and 2 hearts?
How many diamonds shows your opening bid? What would partner bid with no diamonds and 3-4 points?


If you have no way to distinguish between 9 to 11- points on the one hand and 4-6p on the other
and between 55 and 54 in the majors, then there s no way decide between passing, inviting and bidding game (you re sitting in the city hall).

At my system, partner would show 55, around 10points and forget to open the hand. So I would bid 4 hearts.
