Very easy pass. We can't make 4♠. They probably can't make 4♦. But the probability that they will go down in 4♦ is not so high that I want to risk doubling them into game.

Pass.

Depends obviously on your agreements with regards
to preempts.

You have 3 tricks for partner, the 3rd club may or may
not materialize before they got their 4 tricks.
Usually partner promises to go down at most 3, which
means, if you bid 4S, you are pretty sure, that -1 is the
expected result.

And if they should double you double dummy, because you
are -2/-3, they have a fair chance to get it in the given seq.

With kind regards

I pass, and would only double one certain person I won't name because debates have shown what his/her 4♦ bids here look like.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.
