Matchpoints, ACBL robot individual.
The old 3♠ bid on a 3-card suit trick, and, like Charlie Brown confronted by that perfidious football, I went for it again. It's some comfort to know that 19 other optimists bit as well; but I should have remembered that the robot will make always a negative double in this auction if it holds 4♠s, even if it holds a 9-card second suit. And so, the system notes notwithstanding, I should have known that North couldn't hold 4♠. It's a shame this didn't get corrected in the new version. It's an embarrassment.

Yes, sad that the long-awaited new revision does not address this issue. What is so difficult about fixing this? Barmar? Uday? ANYONE????
