No clue what goes on in GIB's "mind". Good 6 card suit, outside King. As some have said "2D has a fairly wide range"

Normally GIBBO gets AmGors when stiff and 6 card good suit.
Perhaps it is not having the spade 10.

Inexplicable

So after some investigation:

1. GIB opens 2s at other vulnerabilities. At this vulnerability apparently it wants the S9 in addition. A little weird IMO but whatever, I suppose 3/top 6 is the rule??.

2. Whatever rule that used to exist telling it to bid 2S with good spades and 6-9/6-10 pts doesn't seem to be triggering anymore, when North has 1h/3d. It doesn't matter how good I make North's spades it won't ever bid 2S. Even if I gave it 8 cd spades (8=1=3=1) it was passing 2d. But once it gets strong enough to bid 3S it will bid 3S. It only seems to find 2S on some other red suit distributions where passing 2d makes no sense whatsoever. This needs to be fixed.
