SimonFa Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 Playing with 3 GIBs I was surprised to get the best score, to date, of 9.6 IMPs shared with one other human whose ops went off in a slam: WvW, RHO dealt ♠ QJ2♥ A4♦ JT8♣ AKT72 All the other humans opened 1♣ (except one who rather bizarrely passed) and ops found a game making spade fit. I opened 1NT and played in 2H making after a dbl from LHO and transfer from partner. I was just wondering if I had missed something seeing as I was the only one to open 1NT? Thanks in advance, Simon 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cargobeep Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 How many other people were there? It could very well have just been a fluke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S2000magic Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 That's a classic (15-17) 1NT opener. Weird. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jillybean Posted November 11, 2012 Report Share Posted November 11, 2012 At the time 9 other tables.I doubt that it is very useful to compare your results and guage your sucess or failure against others on BBO as the results vary wildly,as you can see!

neilkaz Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 If playing a few hands with a pick-up who's profile says 16-18 I'd uograde this to 1NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Remember this hand the next time we're talking about whether GIB is better than "the average BBOer"; 14 BBOers held your hand, and only 3 opened 1NT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billw55 Posted November 13, 2012 Report Share Posted November 13, 2012 Compared to those other players, you made a superior bid and got a superior score. Justice was served. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
