MP, best hand South, Instant, pro GIB 30.
This was worth 100% of the MP, because at nearly all the other tables the auction was identical and they kicked off with 4 rounds of Hearts.
I hope it is just the effect of a different random number seed. Otherwise the earlier version of GIB had the edge on this hand.
Count himself fortunate that East did not have a 5th Heart.
