Another Robot tourney best hand South (me).

I see that GIB plays fit jump shifts by a passed hand.

Is this an example of how it is supposed to be?

Is it sensible to do this with a 4 card major and your "fit" is for what may be a short suit?

Did not score badly, but just trying to learn.

Thanks.

it's absurd. mainly because it's too strong for it. with 3 first round controls and a very good suit it should have opened the bidding in the first place.

 

there's not much wrong with bidding it on a 5-4 shape though - if you don't have 4+ clubs, you must have a balanced hand in which case diamonds is at worst a 5-2 fit, which is perfectly reasonable for the 2-level.
