GIBpartner holds ♠- ♥AQ8542 ♦J7 ♣J10652

Bidding: (1♠) dbl (2♠) to GIBpartner, who calls 4♣. Anyone have any idea why?

Probably meant it as Leaping Michaels. Not a bad idea, as long as partner is in on the secret.

Well, apart from the facts that GIB doesn't play leaping michaels, leaping michaels wouldn't apply here, the GIB description from the mouse-over was "clubs", and this hand isn't appropriate for leaping michaels even if it applied... yeah, sounds good.
