carmelbobc Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 GIB cost me big on Board #5 in the NABC practice round Sunday: [hv=pc=n&s=saqj72h753dkqj6c6&w=s65hqt94d7532ct94&n=skhkj8dat4cj8732&e=shdc]399|300|N opened 1C. E overcalled 1S passed around to N, which doubled. That was passed out.[/hv] I led my singleton C6. When N got in with the SK, GIB led the C7 for my ruff. So, I returned my H5 - having read the C7 as suit preference for hearts. GIB should have led the C2, showing preference for diamonds. Because GIB "knew" it might be giving me a ruff - or did it(?) - seems it would be an easy fix to incorporate its giving suit preference in this situation.

steve2005 Posted July 17, 2017 Report Share Posted July 17, 2017 Gib never uses suit preference signals.Yes there are many situations where this would be useful.Don't know how difficult programming these signals would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
