strange double

Nowhere near the 14 TP it supposed to have- only 10TP. Though you shouldn't be counting your KQxx of diamonds as being suitable for a spades contract especially given GIB standard practice to double with as little as 3 of each major so 3NT should be your first choice- hopefully GIB will put you into 4H from there.

Best hand tourney. Double seems to be somewhere outside the game park. Especially when you consider that partner often bids 3S with 4-4 in the majors and the thought of playing a 4-3 spade fit instead of a 6-4 heart fit, ouch. Also, it is really light with basically no defence if I were to pass.

 

The problem is with a rule which GIB finds with good distribution, but lower requirements of points, it will be improved.
