mikewp Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 I have played with robots quite a lot and usually find their bidding reasonable. This is my first post to this forum, so hope this is appropriate content. If not, apologies in advance. A hand come up today that I think shows a bug in the bidding database or algorithm. In 4th seat with 4 Q75 AK765 AJ83, the auction was: P P P 1D P 1H 1NT X (sandwich NT and support X)2S P P 3C GIB explains 3C in this auction as showing 5+D, 3H, 5+S, 21- HCP. I think it should be 5+D, 3H, 4+C, 21- HCP. I didn't check before bidding 3C and the rest of the auction is not pretty. I realize my 3C is pushy but I didn't want to sell out with a singleton S, though double might have been a better bid. http://tinyurl.com/y8sazzdx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Tu Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 3C shouldn't show spades, but with your RHO showing clubs IMO it shouldn't show a club suit either. Probably it should be some sort of strongish 6+ diamond hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve2005 Posted July 18, 2017 Report Share Posted July 18, 2017 Yes 3♣ is bidding opponents suit. So will definitely be showing much stronger hand than you have so things will go bad after that.To give you 5♠ there is some flaw, obviously you open 1♠ then but I don't see any reason to give you any amount of spades.
