Is Acol Gib still in beta?

Without going into specific hands, the GiB Acol bidding system has several fundamental flaws. I’m not sure that all the problems are down to the descriptions of the bids, but something really basic is going wrong.

From worst first

Forcing bids being passed regularly

Inability to value distributional hands in response to NT openings

Bidding to game after intervention and not bidding the same game without intervention NB the intervention is totally irrelevant in most cases

Frequent discard issues when the distribution is 100% known

Picking a 50 line when there is a 100% line. This may be down to it’s understanding of the bidding/play
