What are total points anyways? This time has Jxxx in opps suit. Can we not change GIBBO's such doubles to say highly invitational to game in agreed suit/last bid suit instead of these HUGE HCP which are almost always wrong? or even simpler takeout perhaps in agreed suit unless something in defense?In this case would be takeout into clubs unless you have solid defense. vrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve2005 Posted December 13, 2017 Report Share Posted December 13, 2017 You will have to change tons of them! Often at high level you have a choice make the right bid and show massive hand or pass and possibly take a bottom.There are a lot of bids like that and not just doubles.

I was ONLY talking about GIBBO doubles of the type I have posted OFTEN. vrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBengtsson Posted December 14, 2017 Report Share Posted December 14, 2017 total points my guess. void = 5. single = 3. double = 1. long cards over 4 = +1 evry card ♠kjt ♥j865 ♦- ♣akqjt3 = 15hcp + 5 void + 2 ♣ suit = 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
