"Defence" like this is why I make BIZARRE bids such as this against the braindead GIBBO robots that I would never even DREAM of making against human opponents. When it comes to bridge, the GIB/GIBBO robots are undoubtedly the most incompetent bozos I have ever seen in my life - and by far.

The loser in the East makes the magnificently stupid decision to shift to a diamond at trick two. "GIB" apparently stands for "Ginsberg's Intelligent Bridgeplayer" (sic!). What a JOKE! The "I" should not stand for "intelligent" with these hopeless clowns. It should stand for "imbecilic", "inferior", "incredibly stupid", or "U.D.I.O.T.I.C.".

Typical joke of a "defence" by Frick and Frack. Here's a positive, constructive suggestion for all GIBBO robots: Give it up, gents. You're no good at bridge. You'll never be good at bridge. Stop wasting your time at something you're incredibly bad at. Try something you might have at least an IOTA of ability for - maybe picking bottle caps up off the street?

At trick eight, West is on lead. He has the SETTING TRICK in his hand. He decides not to cash it. He shifts. Declarer CLAIMS.

Yes, West IS a GIBBO ROBOT. How did you EVER guess?

It looks as if in GIBBO School the robots have learned about sacrifice bidding.

Perhaps, though, they didn't get to the part of the lesson which explains that MINUS 1400 is usually not a GOOD sacrifice against a mere GAME.

Perhaps they also missed the lesson teaching that 5-4 fits (as in diamonds on this hand) tend to play better than six-ZERO "fits".

Perhaps the GIBBO robots should give up the game of bridge...IMMEDIATELY AND FOREVER.

Thank you SO much for pulling my penalty double (!), "partner", you ignorant, hopeless, disgusting piece of DIRT...because it was SO much better for us to be MINUS 400 (!), mercifully NOT doubled, in our RIDICULOUS 4H contract...than it would have been to be PLUS (!) at LEAST 100 by beating them in 3S doubled.

Seriously, why have these sickening, useless, piece of junk GIBBO robots not LONG AGO been unceremoniously BURIED in a landfill and replaced by robots with at least a TINY inkling of how to play bridge? The GIBBO robots are nothing but absolute, total garbage, and considering that they are (unfortunately!) a key part (in fact, possibly the most important part) of BBO, they NEED to be removed...for the good not only of BBO's participants and customers, but for the good of BBO itself...because these pieces of trash do not reflect at ALL well on an otherwise excellent bridge site.

Trick 9: The piece of GIBBO trash sitting in the West stupidly FAILS to cover the jack of diamonds, basically GIVING UP. If the typically *****ous and worthless piece of garbage covers, I will have to guess the location of the diamond 10, but West, being a useless, hopeless GIBBO robot, is too extraordinarily stupid to think of that.

East-West are cold for FIVE hearts, but never do anything other than pass...and let us play in a lowly TWO clubs. And these are GIBBO robots...who OFTEN bid on basically nothing. They are without a doubt, and by far, the most stunningly awful "bridge players" I have ever encountered. If I did not see with my own eyes - every single time I play with and against them - how utterly beyond hope they are, I would not believe that anyone or anything could be THIS astoundingly bad at bridge. The GIBBO robots are garbage...and they BELONG in the garbage.

Silly lead at trick one. Silly diamond continuation at trick four. For that matter, a PHILOSOPHICALLY silly club continuation at trick seven. Why do these hopeless buffoons always think it's a GOOD idea to immediately return the suit DECLARER plays? Better yet, why are these hopeless GIBBO robots still HERE, polluting an otherwise fine bridge site by their very presence?

West gives an excellent demonstration on the fine art of crashing "partner's" stiff high trump honour. West scores 3.6 % on the board. West's opponents score 96.4 %. West is a GIBBO robot. Yeah, THAT explains it.

Another zero for the GIBBO robots sitting East-West to store in a warehouse somewhere. My guess is that they would need MANY warehouses to store ALL the zeroes they've accumulated over the years thanks to their unparalleled ignorance about bridge.

A fellow BBO player of robot games sent me the hand here and gave me permission to post it. He is well aware of how awesomely incompetent the GIBBO robots are. He wrote "Note the third round spade play".

Yes, indeed! It comes at trick four. The mind-blowingly stupid GIBBO robot in the East wins the trick with his ace rather than his nine. He then plays his nine at trick five and is shocked - SHOCKED, I tell you (!) - to see declarer North win his NOW-high queen.

But, dear defenders of and apologists for the GIBBO robots, PLEASE tell me AGAIN about how the GIBBO robots are "better than most human players". PLEASE! As I've mentioned before, I always enjoy a good laugh.

East wins his club queen at trick two and decides to play a diamond at trick three. His diamonds are 1098 tripleton. Because he's a GIBBO robot, one of the worst "bridge players" in the history of the universe, he is so completely stupid that he can't even figure out the CORRECT diamond to lead. The hopeless piece of trash plays, of all things, the NINE - the one diamond of the three that is guaranteed to be the wrong choice. Please toss these derelicts to the curb. They're useless and they're worthless.

Off four TOP tricks in your 4S contract?

As the song says, "Don't worry, be happy", because as long as you're playing against GIBBO robots, there's a good chance you'll make your contract anyway.

How "good" are GIB definitions? Well, here's an example. Let's take a look and then decide.

South's 4NT is defined as "Blackwood (for spades) - 2- hearts; solid 6-card spades; AKQ of spades; no spades; 19+ total points".

So, let me see if I have this right:

South is bidding Blackwood for spades. South has "solid 6-card spades". South has "AKQ of spades". (Yeah, I think we knew that from "solid 6-card spades", so maybe, Mr. GIB, it's not essential to basically say the same thing AGAIN. And yet, we are THEN told - and wait for it, because this is the punch line, and it's a dilly...we are THEN told that...South has..."no spades"!!!!!!!!!!!

Were psychedelic drugs used in the creation of this definition?

Going back to our opening question of "How 'good' are GIB definitions?", I think we have found our answer, and I think it is "not very good...not very good AT ALL!"

Where the HELL is North's FOUR HEART bid coming from?

Oh, never mind. I see: It's coming from the same place as the DOUBLE of 4S.


Yes, you're right: Neither of those (imbecilic) calls even matches his own GIB definitions. Po tee tweet.

60.7 % for going down "only" one in 4S, but why the Hell is North bidding 3C (on his THREE-bagger yet!) on THIS auction where South PASSED his earlier 1S bid?

I know! I know! Can I answer? Please let ME answer, Professor!

Okay, go ahead, you eager beaver.

It's because he's a GIBBO robot, Professor, and GIBBO robots have no idea how to play bridge.

Right you are, eager beaver. Remind me to give you an "A" this term.

Typically ridiculous lead by the piece of GIBBO trash in the West, who also goes wrong late in the hand and "earns" himself yet ANOTHER stone cold zero to add to his IMMENSE lifetime record of abject failure. He and his equally deficient GIBBO "partner" should long ago have abandoned ANY activity requiring even a TINY amount of intelligence.

Why does the stooge SHIFT at trick two after his JACK of spades WINS trick one? He manages to beat us one trick anyway. He scores 35.7 % on the board (and is probably ECSTATIC for doing so "well"), while we score 64.3 %.
