thorvald Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 On Bridgewinners there is a post with to very strange deals with themes I haven't seen before. https://bridgewinner...make-any-sense/ On the first GIB might have changed his mind and thinking 3N would go less down that 4♠ (And the 3♣ is probably a book bid) And on the second I think it is 4th suit forcing, that is the problem, where priority to show support should be higher than showing a rebiddable suit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smerriman Posted October 9, 2022 Report Share Posted October 9, 2022 Both are age-old bugs. So a hard no to the subject line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnu Posted October 10, 2022 Report Share Posted October 10, 2022 BBO is definitely thinking of updating GIB. The only problem is that after a few minutes of thinking, they get a headache and start working on something that actually generates more revenue. I wonder what happened to that other robot program that they acquired with the merger with Funbridge? Has anybody heard if Angine is better, worse, or about the same as GIB?

I think Argine is better, at least it is maintained :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has anybody heard if Angine is better, worse, or about the same as GIB?I played a few times with Argine and found it better than GIB at bidding: also it could be configured to some extent although it still seemed to default to SEF unexpectedly. 52E also bought out Bridge Baron, who were hardly significant competition but have a robot that is top class in play... yet even that was too difficult to think about, apparently.
