GIB Valuation

Recommended Posts

I normally don't submit GIB trouble reports; if I did, I'd be on here all day.

 

However, a recent hand has pointed to a trend I have noted for some time with awe.

I consistently note that I open/rebid with an action stronger than others, yet somehow

wind up at a lower level.

 

Case in point: GIB held A Txxx Jx AJT98x

 

I opened 2C and over 2D (side note - why does GIB only bid a new suit over 2C when completely inapprorpriate?)

rebid 3N showing 25-27. GIB invited with 4N, which is indefensible of course. With 24, I nearly accepted

but ultimately passed. Lose 9 IMPs. My rebid should have gotten us to 7 (at least 6), not 4.

 

This is nowhere near the worst I've seen. My personal record is GIB holding AK 7th of a minor and a side AK

PASSED my opening 2N bid.
