This hand is from a Gib hand,I know Gib's double may be not good.so I think it is best for Gib N to bid 2nt showing 15-18 hcp in the direct seat.

However I am wondering how to bid for my weak minors hand.

Thank you.

I would not bid 3♣ with your pd's hand.

 

And i would not try to show both minors with your hand if you do not have a specific toy for that, i would just choose diamonds.

 

But if you really want to, i think you can try 4 NT over 3♠

 

Of course i don't know if your previous 2 NT lebensohl may contain any strong hand types that has to go thru 2NT first.

There is a rather large difference btn your diamonds and clubs. Your

decision to show diamonds the way you did was fine and your computer

partner (what can you expect from nuts and bolts).

 

Once you bid 4d it seems worse than terrible for your partner to not

advance to 5d since all you need would be xx xxx Qxxxxx Ax for 5d to be

a huge favorite. The bidding actually made it easier for you to get your

hand across to partner. You bid it well and the machine failed you all

I can say is that it was programmed by humans and humans make mistakes

how much harder is it to program artificial intelligence to estimate the

various probabilities associated with this fine game of ours.

 

Keep up the good work and quit worrying how the computer bids----------
