Help
After 3c p ? I didn't like the menu of options:
1. 3♥ and 4♥ both showed 18+ 2-4 hearts, exact same meanings? Shouldn't 4♥ be splinter here, club support?
2. 5♣ shows "23-24" total points.
3. 4♣ shows "12+" total points, no extras?
4. The free 3♣ shows 6-10 total points, which seems a bit light to me. Maybe it should be more like 8-11?
It seems like 3♣ should show more and 5♣ less (20-21 TP?). And 4♣ should show maybe 18-19?
After 3h-3nt-? 5c still showed 23-24, 4c was 18+. Unclear whether GIB thinks 4c is forcing, a description would be nice. I kind of feel like 5c ought to be to play, stronger hands fish around for cue-bids usually, instead of 5c stronger than 4c? Since 3♣ is limited, I think usually game signoffs should be honored and not taken as inv to 6.
Another issue on the hand is why West doesn't just bid 4♥ over the double
6c made as the s8 set up for a diamond pitch after sk lead so all was well.
