Stephen Tu couldn't have been more right in his recent comment. The last thing GIB needs is new conventions. It needs better judgment, and better definitions of bids, in common auctions.

GIB held Ax, AQx, T9xxxx, T9. 1S by me, 2H overcall, P, P back to me for reopening double. Surely it must find something other than a simple 3D call promising nothing! With KQxxx, x, AKJx, Kxx I considered a raise to 4D but that was described as showing 20+ HCP. So I passed and soon claimed the dreaded +190. A Club holds it to 11 tricks.

I suppose the hand doesn't provide an easy bid, with 2NT, 3NT and 4D all possible, but 3D is terrible.
