How is this argument happening? Partner has club support, if he doesn't he needs to learn how to bid.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

i was the 2, 3, 4 diamond bidder. I indeed had club support, I indeed had a diamond void, I indeed had equal majors... here was my hand...



Six clubs needs a little luck.. 2-2 clubs or queen singleton, or lucky guess to hook it, and time to set up winners to makeup for diamond losers in partners hand.

I was thinking
First cue-bid - setup force (sadly only way)
Second cue-bid - hopefully looking for major suit value
Third cue-bid - slam try, diamond control, club fit.

How might you bid this one?

I think you could have bid 4♣ over 3N to send the same message. Then 4♥ over 4♦.

4♦ over 3♣ is possible too.
