All Vul. at IMPs you hold:

Do you open 2♠?

If you pass, LHO will bid 1♥ and RHO 3♥ Limit Raise... What now?

BTW, you have no way to show a weak 2 suiter opening.

Qxxxxx is not a 1st seat, vulnerable 2♠ opener

Are you certain that the little x's are all insignificant small cards, or do both suits have "texture" ?

God gave me 11 black cards for a reason. Obvious 2♠, IMO.

I used to open these piles, but I don't do it anymore. Now I prefer listening to the bidding and butt-in later if appropriate.

The dealer gave me bad cards, I'm passing. After 1♥ - 3♥, maybe they will be annoyed by the 5-0 break :P
