uva72uva72 Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 IMPs, ACBL robot individual Late in the defense of a hand, North breaks a suit in which it holds K832. It leads the 8. Is this standard robot practice or might it lead the 3 or the 2 on other occasions from the same holding? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bbradley62 Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 What are the leading conventions of robots? It would be nice if GIB could provide implications of playing one card over another in the same way that it does bidding conventions. This would be true throughout the hand. In general, I find that its carding throughout the hand tends to be somewhat "whatever is closest to its thumb"...I find the same thing.

steve2005 Posted July 25, 2015 Report Share Posted July 25, 2015 Robot likes to play random cards when it thinks it doesn't matter. Maybe is so you wont be able to get count on hand. Since Gib rarely gives count I don't see how this helps in most cases. What I find most annoying when following suit with no chance to win trick it doesn't just play it's smallest card and sometimes the spots do matter, regardless of what Gib's simulation has predicted.
