Here's one that is just minor and didn't cause a bad result for me, but was funny. I was opener, gib was responder.

p 1♥ p 2♣
p 2NT p 3♠
p 4♣ p 4♠

What was gib's hand? AKT3 3 KJ2 KQ843

But that's not why I'm posting. What shape did the alert say gib showed? 6+ spades and 7+ clubs hehe.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

GIB's help suit game/slam tries are explained as 3+ cards, 2-11 HCP. This afternoon it made a slam try with 3 small in the suit. Things worked out (we bid and made the slam), but it was still strange.

I've seen this maneuver a few times. GIB promising 66 when it's in fact 44, etc. Usually comes after a 2nt jump rebid for me.
