As we know that Gib W should bid 3 with non-forcing in competitive sequences after 3.

Now I am difficult to understand Gib W's pass bid with 4-card support,very strangely.

GIB is very bad about understanding "competitive" bids; he basically thinks all voluntary bids are invitational. We have had many threads devoted to this. GIB presumably thinks 3 by West over 3 would show 16+ total points, because he doesn't want to risk being at the 3 level with 15 opposite 6.

 

See similar situation here: http://www.bridgebase.com/forums/topic/70058-invitational-or-competitive/page__p__836107__hl__competitive__fromsearch__1#entry836107 .
