lycier Posted March 23, 2014 Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 yes,3♣ is a shape showing bid with less than decent 17hcp,5-5 distribution.maybe it make better if GIB play Bart convention? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted March 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2014 I'm perfectly happy with GIB making this bid with 5/5; I just would like him to explain it properly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bbradley62 Posted March 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2014 I think this explanation somehow came to be with the most recent GIB update; I think someone would have commented on it before this otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

georgi Posted March 25, 2014 Report Share Posted March 25, 2014 I think this explanation somehow came to be with the most recent GIB update; I think someone would have commented on it before this otherwise. Thanks for reporting. Its fixed in next v30. It was like that in v28 & v29(current at the moment). Would show now 5+5+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
