jillybean Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 GIB holds A4,Q2,T74,KJT965 , I open 2♣ 2♣:2♦2N:PASS :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
semeai Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 Ouch! Does GIB bid these hands by simulation? I wonder whether it was a case of lack of definitions or of failing to find enough hands in a simulation (or something else). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helene_t Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 There have been some similar examples earlier with GIB passing with a hand that is too good to bid. Presumably 4NT is defined as 9 points, so with 10 points there is a whole in the system and it defaults to pass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted June 9, 2011 Report Share Posted June 9, 2011 The funny thing is that if you opened 2NT, I'll bet it would bid game with xx xx xxx KJTxxx. It's usually pretty appreciative of the value of long suits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
