fuburules3 Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 http://tinyurl.com/bofzns2 Is 1NT here really the system bid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted September 8, 2012 Report Share Posted September 8, 2012 No. This is an old problem whereby GIB prioritizes showing his 3-card limit raise over showing his own spade suit.

Bbradley62 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 I think the spade situation was fixed, but what about minors? What criteria does GIB use to distinguish between making a 3card limits raise in hearts and bidding 2/1 (as a passed hand) of his minor?[hv=lin=pn|Bbradley62,~~M55921,~~M55919,~~M55920|st%7C%7Cmd%7C3S58KH3568JDTQC2KA%2CS467HKAD345C3459T%2CS3TH4TQD679KAC67Q%2C%7Crh%7C%7Cah%7CBoard%201%7Csv%7Co%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C1H%7Can%7CMajor%20suit%20opening%20--%205%2B%20H%3B%2011-21%20HCP%3B%201%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C1N%7Can%7CForcing%20one%20notrump%20--%206-11%20HCP%3B%2012-%20total%20points%20%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cpc%7C]360|270[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
georgi Posted January 15, 2013 Report Share Posted January 15, 2013 1Major - 3Major(uncontested) - 4+fit and 10-12TP, could be passed hand as also fits 10-12TP. With 3 cards and 10-12 GIB goes through 1NT expecting to jump after, showing it. If contested, 3Major could vary. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
