5-5 in Black Gib responding part II

5D hand imps challenge normal bots

same hand as previous post. here I opened 1♣ planning on bidding ♠ twice

Not sure if description of Gib bids are accurate. I ended up shooting to 5♦ on assumption Gib had 5♦ but as Gib wasn't helpful I am probably lucky.

 

South 2♠ says 5+♣ in one part of description and 3♣ in another. Is this merely a typo?

Norths double showed 12+ hcp (which doesn't quite have) 13+ tp but no shape other than 4+♦

 

I guess hearts arn't considered biddable so cant make pen X.

Surely North has to show heart stopper, good diamonds or club support somehow

I have seen similar conflicting typos many times.

well bid. though lucky since opening 1c instead 1s with 5-5 is generally fraught with peril.

I am surprised GUBBO did not bid 6D. Generally length in opponents suit, stiff, invokes the sunniest side of GUBBO.
