I'd bid 3♥ too. I won't be very happy if someone doubles it, but maybe they'll bid 3♠ instead.
... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

I think it's a pretty easy pass, the answers so far surprise me. I can't accept that 3♥ shows no extras of any kind, since this hand has none at all once the QJ of spades are discount. I guess I agree with the last post in the sense that the best results from 3♥ will be from the opponents saving you from your otherwise bad score.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Pass. The only real plus on the hand is the 6th H. The QJ of S are a big minus.

Pass. Partner is still there, why am I misdirecting him with 3H? have I a reason to say "particularly good offense?" or should I say "H-opener; nothing special" Pass.
