These were auto-alerts by GIB. So after 6♦ GIB knows I have 3 key cards and has all the information to safely bid the grand but it didn't.

Bbradley62 Posted July 25, 2014 Report Share Posted July 25, 2014 6♦ shows ♥Q and ♦K (♥K was included in 5♣), so West knows you're lying to him, but he should still be able to count all the tricks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 This hand also allows us to revisit a previously-discussed point about GIB's description and use of Jacoby 2N. At other tables in this tournament, when GIB sat East, he bid J2N over 1♥. Although this does show the fourth heart, it both contradicts GIB's description of the bid (which specifies that it shows a "balanced" hand), and fails to provide the useful information that OP's 2♦ bid showed. But, with the J2N, two GIBs also didn't get to 7:[hv=bbo=y&lin=pn|morgalbane,~~M59850,~~M1210,~~M1336|st%7C%7Cmd%7C2S59JQH59D3TC357JK%2CSTKH2346TADQKC28A%2CS24678H8D45JC469Q%2C%7Crh%7C%7Cah%7CBoard%204%7Csv%7Cb%7Cmb%7C1H%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C2N%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C3N%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C4D%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C4N%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C5C%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C5N%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C6H%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cpc%7CS4%7Cpc%7CS3%7Cpc%7CSJ%7Cpc%7CSK%7Cpc%7CH2%7Cpc%7CH8%7Cpc%7CHK%7Cpc%7CH5%7Cpc%7CH7%7Cpc%7CH9%7Cpc%7CHT%7Cpc%7CS8%7Cpc%7CST%7Cpc%7CS7%7Cpc%7CSA%7Cpc%7CS5%7Cpc%7CCT%7Cpc%7CCJ%7Cpc%7CCA%7Cpc%7CC6%7Cpc%7CDK%7Cpc%7CD4%7Cpc%7CD2%7Cpc%7CD3%7Cpc%7CC2%7Cpc%7CC4%7Cpc%7CHQ%7Cpc%7CC3%7Cpc%7CD9%7Cpc%7CDT%7Cpc%7CDQ%7Cpc%7CD5%7Cpc%7CC8%7Cpc%7CCQ%7Cpc%7CHJ%7Cpc%7CC5%7Cpc%7CDA%7Cpc%7CC7%7Cpc%7CHA%7Cpc%7CDJ%7Cpc%7CH6%7Cpc%7CS6%7Cpc%7CD6%7Cpc%7CS9%7Cpc%7CH3%7Cpc%7CS2%7Cpc%7CD7%7Cpc%7CCK%7Cpc%7CH4%7Cpc%7CC9%7Cpc%7CD8%7Cpc%7CSQ%7C]360|270[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lycier Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 I don't think this is a Gib problem.For me,after 5♦,I am willing to bid 5nt to show ♥Q,and then I guess that Gib W will bid 6♦ to show ♦K so as to let you pick up a final contract - 6♥ or 7♥.

Bbradley62 Posted July 26, 2014 Report Share Posted July 26, 2014 I don't think this is a Gib problem.But, two GIBs, sitting East and West and both knowing their system, should be able to get to 7♥. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
