2♥ is fine. You don't particularly expect your finesses to win and the suit isn't great so there is no reason to do more. Double is conceivable but 3♥ isn't, the suit isn't good enough and we are very suitable for all strains.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

I think I would double and then bid hearts.
I think it's close between dbl/2♥.
The problem with 2♥ is imo that we make game opposite many balanced 7-8counts which will not even think about bidding anything than pass.
