Creeksider Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 The words "rebiddable" and "twice rebiddable" come up fairly often in the explanations of GIB bids. What do they mean? How does the spade suit held by north in this hand qualify as "twice rebiddable"? Hand viewer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 In the same auction, the explanation of 2NT includes 5-H; 5-S. Shouldn't it deny support of either major? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mgoetze Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 I've also seen "biddable", which in that case meant Txxx... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted January 6, 2011 Report Share Posted January 6, 2011 GIB's hands often don't match the descriptions. Sometimes it's because there's a mistake in the description, other times I think it's because GIB has switched from using the bidding database to simulations, and has decided from the latter to make a non-book bid. This seems to be the frequent case when it pulls NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
croquetfan Posted February 4, 2011 Report Share Posted February 4, 2011 this come up often. GIB will keep bidding a suit and if you try to deny it you will end up in 7. this has happpened to me more than once: open 1 club, GIB 1H you bid 1S GIB 2H you bid any futher and GIB will keep bidding those hearts.once GIB bid 3 TIMES with K9xxx (and I had a void - 4H did not make) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
