Shouldn't GIB bid 2♦ over 2♣? I expected him to have NT shape when he bid 2N.

In real life, I play that after fourth suit forcing, first priority is to show 3-card support for partner's major and second priority is to show a stopper. So GIB did fine by those rules.

Then again, in real life, I don't play this 2♣ bid as FSF...

It does have 12 HCP, and it's a good 12 at that....
