Another consistently bad bid by GIB

[BillAngus]

Neither side Vul, GIB holds flat crappy 9 pt hand holding KT73 T98 J8 KQ43 ... GIB partner passes in 1st seat and your RHO passes. You open 1D 3rd seat, 4th seat passes and GIB bids 1S -- 2H by RHop, you bid 2S, your LH op bids 3H and you are screwed because GIB partner now leaps to 4S!! ... Its hand is by some devalued to 8 points by the bidding -- its call even with 9 points is pass or marginal 3S call at best. 4S is a complete non bid from GIB. X -2 against real ops would be a normal result -300 vs. part-score. AGAINST GIBS it is only -100 because they often forget to double and/or defend optimally ... but still VERY irritating.
