I opened 2S and when 5C came back to me I did think that I had much more offense than is usual so I bid 5S.

I you had too much ofense for 2 spades its obvious you should had opened 3 or 4 spades.

I still hate 5♠. Doesn't your pard have an automatic 5♠ bid on his own anyway?
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

I'd normally pass as opener here. The alternative for me would be 3♠, not 2♠.

Over 5♣ I'd pass. The alternative would be double, not 5♠.
Kind regards,
Harald

Guys, if you open an atypical 2♠, it's ok to make atypical bids (like 5♠) later :)

As long as they work well, that is.. lol.

Agree with this, X as an "I want to bid 5S" bid is becoming more popular because you really hare bidding 5S in front of partner.
