Scoring: IMP

1♦ 1♠ dbl 2♣

2♣ is non-forcing.
... that would still not be conclusive proof, before someone wants to explain that to me as well as if I was a 5 year-old. - gwnn

5♦

I'll probably end there eventually, so I bid it at once.

I will not consider playing in hearts; 8-card suits are not side-suits.

We should always assume 2/1 unless otherwise stated, because:

- If the original poster didn't bother to state his system, that means that he thinks it's obvious what he's playing. The only people who think this are 2/1 players.

I think I open 5♦, it's just so likely opponents will interfere anyway and I can't have a reasonable auction in that case. Even if they don't interfere then it won't be easy to show this hand.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

I like 5D. BTW for anyone considering 4D it shows the same as 1D p 1H p 4D would show.

Thats what I thought 4♦ did show. 5♦ now.

Would have preempted this 4♦ in the first place.

5♦ originally seems right...

5♦ now seems right...

5♦ later seems absurd, because you will be there eventually.
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!
