Responding to 1NT with Slam Invitational+ Hands (Set 4 of 8)

Responding to a 1NT opening bid with an excellent hand seems like it should be simple, but that often turns out not to be the case. With a hand that is good enough to be interested in slam opposite partner's 1NT opening, we have to search for a fit, let partner know about the fit, and express slam interest, all while keeping the auction at a relatively low level. Let's take a look at how we balance all these considerations.
