MP, Instant, ver 32

I got less than 90% for this. Someone got himself into 7NX making, and a couple of others in 7H. Previous version of GIB for them of course, but it looks like nothing much has changed in this area.

It is not the defence. West has my sympathies. But something is strange in the bidding.

prefer 1h rather than x.

then over 3d prefer 3s.

then if north jumps to 4h or 5c it seems you have an easy pass.

It is not so much as fighting for trumps rather than all of the explanations of South's bids are bizarre (no way to show a hand too good to overcall?)
