Playing SAYC, NV vs Vul opponents, you hold:

♠Ax
♥Ax
♦AQJTxx
♣KQT

What's your poison?

Also, he rates to not have a heart void when he leads the ♥3.

1D planning to bid 3C next.

I don't like to show this as a balanced hand, I think that is a bigger distortion. The suit is so good and my major suit holdings are very suit oriented.
and the result can be plotted on a graph.

2♣ for me, planning to show this as a balanced hand too strong for 2NT.
That's impossible. No one can give more than one hundred percent. By definition that is the most anyone can give.

I would normally treat this shape and high card strength as balanced, but I agree with han that it looks wrong on this particular hand which is so suit oriented.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Form of scoring? I agree with Han at IMPs but 655321 at MPs.

2NT, and I don't think it's poison.

2♣ then 2NT. Despite how suit oriented this is, I still want to treat it as balanced.
Yay for the "Ignored Users" feature!
