What is a good two-suiter? (LOL)

I've seen GIB bid 14 cards before but this here's a new quality. Never mind the play but don't miss checking the label of the 2♥ bid!

And the modest bid 4h after that kind of understanding is especially cute.

Clearly it didn't trust your ability to play AK876 vs QJT95432 for no losers

Must have got scared by that hand where declarer has an 8-card trump suit opposite a void and breaking 3:2 with opponents but only generating a total of 3 tricks.
(See here http://www.rpbridge.net/8k65.htm and search for 'Twelve the hard way'.)

It's some weird explanation bug, not a definition bug. I have never seen it before I must admit.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

I am pleased to say I haven't seen this either. Welcome back JDonn. Even if there are no software improvements, your presence and replies improve the quality of my experience here. Why the admins are here for a while, then disappear for months before returning, I suppose is one of the mysteries of BBO.

I will take the blame. I had no good reason to stop posting here (other than to stop feeding the few trolls), I just sort of faded away. I can tell you that behind the scenes, the pace of improvements on GIB for the next future release has picked up tremendously over the last month. I hope that can continue.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.
