virgosrock Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 reminder GUB = Ginsbergs Untelligent Bridgeplayer I balanced 'cos I have 10 hcp. GUBBO may have a decent hand and had to pass since no good bid available over 1S...... and I have 2 Aces Got punished with a bizarre 4H. Add insult to injury the other GUBBO had 5H to the KT. vrock [hv=http://www.bridgebase.com/tools/handviewer.html?lin=pn%7CVirgosRock%2Cchris+75%2CRobotN%2CRobotE%7Cst%7C%7Cmd%7C4S5AH3589AD36C28TQ%2CS28TQKHJDJQKAC379%2CS479JH7QD27TC46KA%2C%7Crh%7C%7Cah%7CBoard+6%7Csv%7Ce%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C1S%7Can%7CMajor+suit+opening+--+5%2B+%21S%3B+11-21+HCP%3B+%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C2H%7Can%7CBalancing+overcall+--+11-+HCP%3B+rebiddabl%7Cmb%7Cd%7Can%7CTakeout+double+--+3%2B+%21C%3B+3%2B+%21D%3B+2-+%21H%3B+5%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C3D%7Can%7C4%2B+%21D%3B+5-+HCP+%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7C4H%7Can%7C3%2B+%21H%3B+16-+total+points+%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cmb%7Cp%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CDA%7Cpc%7CD2%7Cpc%7CD4%7Cpc%7CD3%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CDK%7Cpc%7CD7%7Cpc%7CD5%7Cpc%7CD6%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CDQ%7Cpc%7CDT%7Cpc%7CD8%7Cpc%7CH3%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CH5%7Cpc%7CHJ%7Cpc%7CHQ%7Cpc%7CHK%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CH6%7Cpc%7CH8%7Cpc%7CS2%7Cpc%7CH7%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CC2%7Cpc%7CC7%7Cpc%7CCA%7Cpc%7CC5%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CCK%7Cpc%7CCJ%7Cpc%7CC8%7Cpc%7CC3%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CC4%7Cpc%7CH4%7Cpc%7CCT%7Cpc%7CC9%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CS6%7Cpc%7CSA%7Cpc%7CS8%7Cpc%7CS4%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CCQ%7Cpc%7CST%7Cpc%7CC6%7Cpc%7CHT%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CS3%7Cpc%7CS5%7Cpc%7CSQ%7Cpc%7CS7%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CSK%7Cpc%7CS9%7Cpc%7CD9%7Cpc%7CH9%7Cpg%7C%7Cpc%7CHA%7Cpc%7CDJ%7Cpc%7CSJ%7Cpc%7CH2%7Cpg%7C%7C%0A%0A]399|300[/hv] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnu Posted May 25, 2018 Report Share Posted May 25, 2018 In defense of GIB, if GIB doesn't bid 4♥ how are you getting to game? And 4♥ is not bizarre since GIB makes bids like that all the time so it's really a common bid. I've seen a couple of hands where the cards are sitting just right and game actually makes.
