gartinmale Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 Here's the link: http://tinyurl.com/7dwnvbr You might like X at South's first turn better than 1♠, but c'est la vie. 3♠ is described as 4-8 total points, consistent with a preemptive jump. North's hand is a bit better than that... (and yes, I know that 4♠ can be set if lefty underleads his club honors). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barmar Posted December 12, 2011 Report Share Posted December 12, 2011 The rule for the cue bid in this auction requires 16 HCP, which seems pretty heavy. I guess the assumption was that opener has a full opening hand (because he rebid), and responder has some points, so there's not much left for partner, so we don't want to invite game without significant extras. I think this is a bug, we'll investigate a fix. While playing around with this, I asked GIB what it would have bid if West had passed instead of bidding 2♣. I expected it to cue bid, but instead it bids 1NT! That seems like a real bug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
