Part one is here



Robot tourney, IMPs scoring. I decided to overcall 2C and got this development.
Partner's 3S is natural and forcing. Your call?

Yuk! (regarding 3♠ and what it means in GIB system) I think I am end played to bid 3 NT now with this hand. Seeking slam when they opened is not something I like anyway.

"Well to be perfectly honest, in my humble opinion, of course without offending anyone who thinks differently from my point of view, but also by looking into this matter in a different perspective and without being condemning of one's view's and by trying to make it objectified, and by considering each and every one's valid opinion, I honestly believe that I completely forgot what I was going to say."

good system for Gib 3S is forcing, 2S is only constructive so NF.
I know slam is really low odds but you have a monster and your partner is GF opposite an overcall.
Opposite a human east I would suspect a psyche or they are using very light methods.

I don't want to be endplayed into 3NT so I bid 4H.

I rank
  • 3N = NAT. Standout.
  • 4♥ = NAT. If partner has 4♥, he is likey to bid them over 3N.
  • 4♠ = NAT. Partner's ♠s may be useless in any other contract.
  • _P = NAT, Antisystemic but might be last chance to escape alive.
  • 4♣ = NAT. Exagerates ♣ length and quality.
  • 4♦ = CUE. Ugh.
  • 4N = RKC.

i wonder what would have happened over my 1h overcall (sigh) anyway 3n appears the best we can do. We are a bit top heavy but the spade void should nicely compensate for that :(.
