1eyedjack Posted July 15, 2016 Report Share Posted July 15, 2016 North has 12 HCP. Is a 6 card trump suit (or, if you prefer shortness points, two doubletons), worthless in total points?Yes, according to GIB. It does not count any length points and it does not add a shortage point for a doubleton if it has an honour in it. Hey, I did not program it. But at least here it is being internally systemically consistent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stephen Tu Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 What's wrong with TPs?We think it's a little too conservative in devaluing doubleton Kings and aces, and should GF with the north hand instead of only inviting. Perhaps the TP formula can be tweaked a bit, like maybe not -1 from doubleton aces, doubleton kings, deducting only from say doubleton qs and Js, singleton kings. Or at least a smaller deduction than -1, like half only. And maybe a bonus point for the 6 cd trump. Now let's see my simulating hand.

Yes, absolutely. Because despite the double dummy result, game is excellent single dummy, and I want to be there every day of the week since I don't get to examine the opponent's hands during the bidding. You only need one of two finesses, ace of hearts onside or Q of club onside, and have extra chances of opponent leading away from CQ, or them not attacking diamonds in time while you set up clubs for a diamond pitch. It's not so much a problem with the actual South hand since it was just quite good enough to raise to game, but if South were 5233/5323 13 HCP, same honors, I think most pass the limit raise, and game is almost as good and still excellent, still 1 out of 2 hooks, only lost chance to pitch diamond on club if given time. Game is probably 85+% DD against most South 5332 12-13 worst hands which pass 3S. It can't be right to value JT98xx Kx Ax Axx as equivalent in trick taking power to JT98 Kxx Axx Axx, counting both as 12 TP. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lovera Posted July 16, 2016 Report Share Posted July 16, 2016 About detraction it'd be: -1 for 1) an hand without Aces (only for opener), 2) King or Queen or Jack singleton, 3) Doubleton with Q or J plus a card (Qx, Jx) but not the Ace, 4) Qxx or Jxx or both those one, 5) shape 4-3-3-3 for raising trump, 6) raising trump with three cards, 7) King or Queen in unfavoureable position (from Stayman system: Table of valutation of the hand pag.8)(Lovera) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think at this stage that programmers are valuting it. Infact is not usual that responder has trump longer that opener and it has to be considered. Lacking indication 4♠ is on average. If West and East hands are reversed almost 11 tricks are realized. Than let's be quite and waiting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never disagree.1- 3♠ is a normal bidding according to Gib CC in the " OP " hand.North only has 12 TPs even with 6-card support, however according to Gib CC and Gib TP evaluation, 3♠ is a correct bidding.2- If you never agree with my opinion, what else?You think North should bid to game, however would you know what you meant?You require to revise Gib CC - no longer use 4♣/♦ splinter, renew to define 4♣/♦ as reverse swiss raise convention so as to show exactly this sorts of hands.Note here Gibs need a playable programme of action, don't need a bidding based on logic judgement.

Stephen Tu Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 For those of us that think the North hand is a game force, it is sufficient for North to bid 2nt Jacoby. Adopting Swiss raises is unnecessary. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lycier Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 For those of us that think the North hand is a game force, it is sufficient for North to bid 2nt Jacoby. Adopting Swiss raises is unnecessary. Your answer is a bit far-fetched.Why is the North hand a game force?The main reason is North hand has over 12 TPs in fact. That's to say there is a Dummy Point problem in the North hand :Dummy Point = TP + shortness points when there is good trumph fit on the dummy hand.So it is a game force because there is 14 TPs of Dummy Point in the North hand.So in another word, the count method on Gib Dummy TP evaluation needs to be improved. Any ideas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Tu Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Your answer is a bit far-fetched. You might want to explain exactly what you consider far-fetched, since you apparently agree with our evaluation that North should GF. You object to Jacoby 2nt? Why? I don't think North should be discounted to 12 TP whether it is responder or opener. To me it is worth 14 approximately, and if this hand was first to open, and partner is giving me a 10-12 limit raise I am definitely accepting.

Lovera Posted July 18, 2016 Report Share Posted July 18, 2016 Ah, I wasn't aware of those exact spacifics. In that case not a bug, but a flaw of the system. Perhaps 11 card fits could add at least a point or two ;)It is a question of plus-values, but how these one will be managed ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
