I'd open 5D. Having passed, I think I'd pass again, maybe they aren't bidding game.

Easy pass first, and pretty easy 3♠ second.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Agree with Josh, wouldn't dream of opening this one.
Please note: I am interested in boring, bog standard, 2/1.

I would not open. With my luck, I would open the wrong suit anyway, and if it were diamonds on high level, pd would never imagine I have KQ10xx hearts on the side.
Pass first, I might come in with 3S later to show this hand.

Pass then 4D leaping michaels. 4D must be leaping michaels logically.

#1 Pass
#2 3S (or 4D ... if I trust partner gets the message,
I am not convinced I would have thought about
it, but it sounds logical) seems right, you may also
try a pass, intending to bid 4NT over 4S / and to sell
out below game, but this maybe a little bit too deep.
With kind regards

Ok partner won't think so on this deal, but couldn't you have passed as dealer with, say, 4171? But I'm not saying I disagree, just sort of wondering out loud.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

I'd agree with pass and 3S, but I wonder will partner now think I am asking him for a spade stop to play 3N? (Not that it might not work, but he will probably have a different idea of my hand if he thinks that way?)

I would open 2♥, weak hand with 5 hearts and 4 card or longer in a minor suit.
This Muiderberg convention is quite popular in Holland.
When the opps bid 2♠ and 3♠ after that I'll bid 4♦.
Then my partner will know what to do over 4♠.

I won't open 2♥ Muiderberg, even if i'm playing it, i think 5♥+7♦ it's not a Muiderberg hand.

I would say Muiderberg is the closest thing to this hand and be happy to preempt.
