M Snerd Posted August 8, 2012 Report Share Posted August 8, 2012 Yes, it does this over and over ... over bidding I'd say. Thanks for telling them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still wonder whether the description of 3N including "5- H" contributes to this problem when it should be clear that I don't have 5 (or even 4) hearts.

Quantumcat Posted September 25, 2012 Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 Not 100% sure how new minor forcing works, but avoiding this problem could be as simple as giving it a chance to bid its hearts below the four level and officially rejecting them, making the robot relieved to have been able to bid all of its hand. Sort of the same way you bid RKCB when you don't really care about the response rather than jumping to slam, to prevent the robot from bidding on to the seven level.

Bbradley62 Posted September 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 25, 2012 NMF applies after a NT rebid by opener. Bidding diamonds (as some Souths did) is natural, and risks being raised if North's red suits were reversed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgi Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Hand 1 - pull out and description of 3NT are fixed in next update. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
