Especially after the redouble. OK my takeout double wasn't a thing of beauty but still ... I should have gotten out OK if it had bid the normal 1h, which makes if the opps want to crack it. I think it has a rule that it wants to preempt with 5 cd outside suits after redoubles, which is fine with a major, tends to be "LOTT" safe, but substantially less so with a minor (level higher, partner more likely to have doubleton), and this should deny 4 cd major in any event. IMO 3c should be 6cd club no 4M.

GIB has trouble dealing with redoubles; there was another hand earlier with some sort of 3163 (or 3154, don't remember) type of thing after 1d-x-xx, it didn't bid 1s or pull 1h-x to 1s when I chose 1h went it got back around to me. With some sort of preference between the majors it definitely shouldn't be passing the redouble.
