Phil Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 xx KTxxx ATxx xx 1♦ - (2♣) - 2♦ - (3♣)3♦ - (pass) - 4♥ It was only down 5 across from ATx Q KJxxx Kxxx. 4♥ alerted as 5+ hearts, 4+ diamonds, 6-10 (I think). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdonn Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 I'm fairly sure the real problem is that 3♦ there shows like 16-18 to gib... I haven't got my finger on it yet, but sometimes those competitive bids to the 3 level show extras and sometimes they don't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
junyi_zhu Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 I'm fairly sure the real problem is that 3♦ there shows like 16-18 to gib... I haven't got my finger on it yet, but sometimes those competitive bids to the 3 level show extras and sometimes they don't. 3m after 1m x 2m y 3m shows extra in gib's system. Obviously a maximum (or invitational) double should be better and 3m should be competitive as well. x and y stand for opp's interference. When it's 1M, the program properly shows that 3M is competitive, although invitational double is not implemented. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arigreen Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 Thanks for the report. Yes, the biggest problem here is that 3♦ is defined as "4+ D, 16-17 total points". Fixing this definition should improve GIB's accuracy in responding to the 3♦ bid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
