gordontd Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 There is a school of thought that says fourth hand should always double when 2NT is passed around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LBengtsson Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 There is a school of thought that says fourth hand should always double when 2NT is passed around. yes, I have heard this also but its dangerous. however the robot went berserk bidding instead. forget about 55% rebate: think you should get 100% rebate of your money when robot does garbage bidding like this :angry: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pilowsky Posted June 23, 2021 Report Share Posted June 23, 2021 I don't see what you're complaining about.EW has an excellent mini-Moysian.Just shockingly bad luck with the trump split, the complete lack of points and the rather poor distribution of honours - many of which seem - for no apparent reason to be in the defender's hands.Clearly, GIB has been tweaked to cope with the optimistic nullve NT point range. Something that I've recently been emulating with minimal success.

pescetom Posted June 25, 2021 Report Share Posted June 25, 2021 Not even close :lol: As an auction no, the 3♦ call at least suggests a reasonable conjecture that there may be a sustainable 3 level fit somewhere...but the 4♦ call is amongst the worst I have seen, whether from robots or humans.
