Why so egoistic, GIBBO?

After I show a very strong hand with a takeout X followed by a cuebid, my partner bids 5 clubs with five to the jack and nothing else. When I then bid 6 hearts as I just need either the king or ace of clubs with my partner, the bot egoistically pulls this to 7 clubs and most likely only passes my 7 hearts because it can't bid 8 clubs.

Never make an offshape takeout double playing with GIB. The followup bidding has been broken for 20+ years, with no expectation that BBO will ever fix it.

Maybe try starting with 3♦ for the majors to get his preference?
