Now look at this hand,it is very easy to make 6♠ unless rediculous finesse at the second round.
What's wrong with Gib?

What's up with the 4♥ bid?

And, if South believes the description provided, which is that North has neither ♣A nor ♦A, why would he bid RKC?

Maybe Gib N cuebid 4♥ to show its big hand and strong raise with slammish? Of course,its explanations are wrong.it looks like last train.

I hope this was Basic GIB. I have seen some hands where it plays very badly, but I believe that declarer play is the strongest part of Advanced GIB's game.

Just following the rule 8 ever, 9 never :D Presumably a basic GIB bot in which case you get what you paid for. On a good day, the finesse would have worked and GIB would have 14 or 15 of the last 12 tricks :rolleyes:
