What's X? But regardless isn't this a pass or am I missing something? If partner reopens with a dbl (would be takeout for me) then I'll happily bid 3♦

Why would I do anything? 3♦ is the only possibility but that could just be saving them.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

This is interesting? Hopefully, there is more to the story.

I pass also.
Is the word "pass" not in your vocabulary?

As other's have note why should they go down when we can and so 3♦ is mandated. Back to reality, this is a WTP pass IMO

Easy pass. Partner can x 3C for takeout if she wants.

P -- WTP? Maybe this hand is supposed to contain 6♦ to the JT?
