They are vulnerable, should I take the money?

 

Perhaps I should have bid 4♦ instead of Double

 

Norths double is not because of ♠-tricks, but probably around 8-10 points

 

Seems right to bid here

This is a typical 4-card suit. Should i surrender?

 

At least ruffing ♠s would be in the short hand

 

But if only 4♥ there should be a ♣-suit, so et continued

Nice landing until I found ♥3-3, ♦2-2 with King in place and ♣4-1

 

Så 7♥, 6♦ is making and 4♠X is 800, but 6♣ was unmakeable on a ♠-lead.

 

 

Murphy, please leave

I am glad that someone on here is doing a systematic assassination of GIB many faults. That is why I do not play with robots: you can never trust what they do. I had to look up the 'Murphy': now I understand.

That is why I do not play with *humans*: you can never trust what they do :)

 

You're only seeing the hands that are being reported. In every other hand, you can trust the robots far more than you can trust a typical BBO player.

I agree, the bots are much more consistent - they will continue to make the same error over and over again :-)

 

No seriously, consistency in the bidding is worth a lot, and I often play 8-board matches, where the bot is doing very well (and I am making the errors)
