Here is the hand. Since the explanation was "rebidable spades, 14+ points" I assumed it was a forcing bid.



Played during an ACBL robot tournament. I didn't think GIB was allowed to pass 2.

You might also assume it was forcing because GIB's convention card says RONF :P

That too. It ended up a good board since I made the tenth trick, but seems like this is a bidding bug. It might have felt there was no good bid and so had a default pass. But that shouldn't be allowed in forcing situations.

I wonder: how does GIB play the sequence 2-2NT(feature ask)-3-3?
