pescetom Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 See here I could (almost) understand an invite rather than game, but Pass? :blink: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve2005 Posted May 3, 2018 Report Share Posted May 3, 2018 For a Walrus like Gib, pass is unbelievable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
virgosrock Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 For a Walrus like Gib, pass is unbelievable. While seems weird action by GIBBO, do note 4S is a tough make :) some method to GIBBO's madness. vrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve2005 Posted May 4, 2018 Report Share Posted May 4, 2018 While seems weird action by GIBBO, do note 4S is a tough make :) some method to GIBBO's madness. vrockDoesn't matter if it makes or not you want to be there. There is a 4-1 trump break. how is it on a 3-2?My partner last night passed a forcing bid as he didn't like his hand.He had ATxx Tx Jx AKxxx.. Not a maximum Precision 2♣ but i like it better than a lot of maximums when I force in hearts.I made 4H luckily but field went down in 4H. It takes good defense to beat. 10 minutes later i figured out how to make 4 after any lead but spades.But partner thought I was crazy complaining about passing a forcing bid as 3♥ even without the overtrick is a top. Well sorry I want Gib to bid game on this hand or at least invite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a 4-1 trump break. how is it on a 3-2?As you say.And FWIW it made, though I played it distractedly and I imagine that better opponents could have thwarted me. My partner last night passed a forcing bid as he didn't like his hand.My real world partners get to do that exactly once B-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picks up corner cases often. vrock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdonn Posted May 7, 2018 Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 This never happens. It was the fluke of all time. Basic bot? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pescetom Posted May 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted May 7, 2018 This never happens. It was the fluke of all time. Basic bot? It certainly happened.I imagine it was a basic bot (for some reason they don't tell).Probably a TCR90 tournament, if you like I can check (should be easy to trace, I posted it very soon after).

jdonn Posted May 9, 2018 Report Share Posted May 9, 2018 I'm not saying you made it up, just saying I have seen thousands of transfer auctions from GIB and never seen anything like this happen until now. If it repeats it will be a problem that needs to be fixed. For now I can't imagine why it happened but think it is some kind of fluke.

cloa513 Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 GIB also forces to game on a 12-14 NT with 9 HCP. There is no method in its madness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
