thorvald Posted August 16, 2022 Report Share Posted August 16, 2022 In this sequence GIB bid 5♥ Poll As you can see from my comment in the poll: The interesting problem is that 4th suit forcing can either beA: A hand with 5♥s - but wouldn't that hand just bid 4♥ now?B: A doubt showing 3N, then 4♣ would problably be our bidC: A hand to strong for 3N directly after 2♣. Then we just want to play 3N. What are the rules GIB is following? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerriman Posted August 18, 2022 Report Share Posted August 18, 2022 According to the definition, 3NT shows 14-21 points. But in reality it would bid 3NT earlier with up to around 16. So I would it to have at least 17 in this auction. Whether North knows that or not when simulating, I don't know. Why it bids 5♥ instead of 4 of a minor (which my GIB seems to prefer, and it seems to think slam is making quite a lot), I don't know. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
