Never mind the result, never mind the layout. Just focus on North's typically sick, twisted, bizarre, illogical, perverse lead.

Looking ONLY at North's hand, why the HELL would he lead a DIAMOND on this auction rather than a club? What is it about these GIBBO pieces of slime that makes them HATE to lead "partner's" suit?

Why should North's 3S call be "forcing", as the GIB definition claims? If he wants to be in 4S, then why the Hell doesn't he just BID 4S instead of pussyfooting with this ridiculous 3S? That would leave a THREE spade call available to INVITE 4S. But I guess that would be just too LOGICAL for the person who created the utterly WRETCHED and COMPLETELY illogical system used by GIB! Did he actually think his antiquated, incomplete, redundant JOKE of a system was ANY good at all?

Have I seen BETTER "defences"? You know what? Now that you mention it, I have. I haven't seen many WORSE ones, though.

Good golly, Miss Molly. but GIB/GIBBO is absolutely WRETCHED at bridge.

Another perverse lead, another wretched "defence" by Ginsberg's INCOMPETENT "Bridgeplayers" (sic!).

Total losers, time after time. GIB/GIBBO rots.

I enjoyed this comment by Joe_Old in another thread (called "Notrump ranges?"):

"Just more proof that GIB is poorly thought out and executed."

Amen! REALLY poorly thought out!

Another hopeless "defence" from Frick and Frack:
