MP Instant robot tourney, best hand South.
Scored 50% because half the room were bidding 6 going down, the other half in game. Just me languishing in partscore. But the other room was 4 years ago, mind.
Anyway, I took the explanation of 3
♠ with a pinch of salt. Whatever it shows, the explanation seems inadequate, As I recall it provides precisely the same explanation for a 2
♠ bid. But surely I would rebid 2
♠ on any hand that was not worth GF?
