This may not make.

Georgi has previously said that this would be fixed in the next update. However the "fix" was that robots would not make high level cue bids any more, not that they would learn not to pass them. Presumably if a human player makes such a cuebid with a GIB partner, we can still expect it to pass. Totally unsatisfactory in my opinion.

West's pass of 5D seems a little suspect to me.

I don't understand passing! How can Gib think its right to play in opponent's 10 card fit.
