With all the complaining about GIB, I would like to say there are GOOD things about GIB tournaments.

One if that I play at a good pace in all of them. In all of them, once you finish a hand, you go right to the next hand. No waiting for other tables to finish like in clocked round tourneys like ACBL, Sky Club, etc.

But, the main thing is that: No matter how badly I mess up the bidding and play (I've been known to do this several times in several of the GIB tourneys), the GIB Partner just stays silent. :) No unwanted lectures or lessons. Just nice silence like nothing happens. Your score (whether it's MPs, IMPs, or TPs) still takes a huge hit whenever do anything you go down in a cold game, go down in slam, misbid your hand so badly that you do something like end up in an unmakable 3H contract while 4S is cold, having the opponents make an overtrick in a doubled contract, go for -1100, or any other bonehead move etc, so I don't need the insult to injury, and I don't get it with GIB. :)

In fact, I've never had the GIB chat anything to GIB. Keep it like this, please. :)

Since I've (and others) been known to complain about GIB, I just would like to make a post to appreciate the GOOD things about GIB tourneys.
