Isn't the squeeze still on after ace of clubs, spade, spade? They would have to switch to a diamond to break it up.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

A wonderful choice If we are in Advanced and Expert-Class fighting ;)

Is it so bad? I mean for once we actually do have a very powerful suit to introduce and also the playing strength for a 5-level bid.

That wouldn't break up the squeeze. It would simply change it from a simple squeeze for the contract to a showup squeeze for down 1. :)

Yes. I made the hand because of the misdefense, on the squeeze, did not mean to leave you with the impression that it went down.
