Fastforward to trick 11. GIB holds AQJ as its last three cards in a no trump contract. I play the K, and GIB ducks. GIB is broken. If BBO don't have the resources to fix GIB, please please please open it up to more people. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smerriman Posted August 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2017 Yep. The restaurant has a bad rating, it doesn't seem to be improving, and there is a large crowd outside knocking on the door asking if they can help ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
