GIB's preemptive minor raise has quite a wide range, so anything could have been right. Pass, 3NT, 5D were all worthy of consideration. I decided to made the call I would make with a human partner, 3H. When GIB came alive with Blackwood, it seemed certain I had made a blunder and was headed for a poor result. But if I bid 5D, GIB would expect 4 key cards, so I made the accurate reply of 5C, and GIB bid the slam. As you can see, it was ice cold.

 

Bidding your hand accurately certainly doesn't always work with GIB, but it does work out reasonably often. And you don't develop bad habits which may carry over to other venues.
