This hand is from 8-boards mp Arena Challenges.
See the definition of jump 4 - " 5+,4+,6-32hcp,7+TPs".
" 6-32 hcp'? I thought maybe it is a decent hand ,or even big hand, so bid up to slam. but actually only with 6TPs and 4hcp.
Such definition is deceptive and elusive.

I must admit, I have never seen any bid have that range before.

The another is 4 definition.
4 says " 6+,6+,4-card ,6+TPs". What is " 4-card after 6+ ? Here I would feel confused.
I would admire your honesty.

I'm sure there are conflicting rules and they both worked their way into the definition. But I am certainly not going to spend time on "impossible" auctions like the second one.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.
