Remove 28+ HCP possibilities

Countless times I make a normal bid without checking the description only to see GIB

lose "his" mind and later find out the I've shown 33 HCP or some such nonsense.

 

This was a recent example.

(2S)-3H-(4S)-5H-6H-7H

 

After making a NF 3H bid, GIB played me for a 28 count and raised to 7

(still didn't have his raise but ...).

 

Seems prudent to either remove the possibility of 28+ hands or at least remove

them after a NF call has been made.

I think you're talking for windows version GIB ( that's v21. from 5.2.21 label at the top ). You can use it at table in MBC/RBC likely.

 

However it's fixed since v23. So it won't be encountered in web version or tourney robots.

 

Previously it was something like:

 

Assuming spades were opponents.

old / new

2

3 - Overcall -- 5+ ; 12+ total points / Overcall -- 5+ ; 12-19 total points

4

5 - -- 3+ / -- 3+

Pass maybe from opener

6 - -- 5+ ; 33+ total points / !? -- 5+ H; 19- total points; 13+ relay points

Pass

7 - -- 3+ ; 7+ total points -- 3+ ; 21+ total points
