HI,

Major problem with the explanation of 2D here. GIB reckons to be denying Spades and has KQJ92.

Regards,

Simon

EDIT Just noticed that on this hand it bids 2S as an opener reverse, a much better bid.

Wow. That is quite a 2 rebid.

I guess GIB thinks it has 12 HCP so it rebids minimally. Game in spades is cold opposite 4 small spades (sometimes 3) and a working ace. as long as declarer doesn't get tapped out in clubs.

Yes, one guy didn't believe GIB and got a top.

GIB thinks it needs 18+ TP to reverse in this auction, and this bidding rule doesn't allow simulations to override it.

We need to teach GIB "6-5 come alive". Also, a rule that made use of LTC would recognize how good these suits are and the value of the void (GIB knows how to calculate LTC, it's just not used in many rules).

Responder has tons, he should keep bidding- 5 is pretty solid. I don't whether the next bid should be 3 or 4 but it certainly shouldn't be pass.
