Wow! GIB passed splinter again and was serious

[2200]

No, not misunderstanding, not bugs, but truly decision.

It wants to play it!

3S

I decided to risk the double, and indeed GIB was disturbed. After showing "splinter spades", clearly it was serious to play 4-1 fit.

It's pretty comical to play 4-1 when you have 6-2 with diamonds to the AKQJ. Needless to say, 3NT is laydown.
