GIB forgets to draw the last trump

Please disregard (and delete this post) - found the "send robot report" button :-).

 

For the curious: Forward to trick 11

LOL, that's the kind of misplay that's not too uncommon with humans. When everything is going wrong and you're already down a bunch, you start to lose concentration and make stupid plays.

 

But computers should be immune from this. My first guess was that the simulations got the number of hearts in each hand wrong, but that doesn't seem right. From the takeout double it should assume short clubs in south, and it knows that south still has a trump, so the distribution of the red suits is irrelevant.

The first misplay was on trick 2- should put up the ace of diamonds- there is no way of avoiding a diamond loser so playing on spades from dummy should be first priority not reverse finessing from hand.

And too kind of you not mention MY misplay ;). Guess we were both under a little time pressure...

Like what misplay- as far I can tell it was nearly spotless except not cashing the Aof hearts before putting up the Jack of diamonds and hoping GIB overtakes it and plays another diamond on which you discard a club.

 

I was referring to

cphastrup statement of his misplay.

GIB really messed up this hand. The play was wrong from the start. In addition I don't understand why it didnt draw the last trump unless it was set to some beginner mode.
