And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."

If you pass on this auction every time you have a balanced hand with Kxx of clubs, you will do fine and save a lot of brain cells. Sometimes bidding is right but I'm not smart enough to figure out which times those are. That's why I'm so concerned with saving brain cells.
Please let me know about any questions or interest or bug reports about GIB.

Pass.

I'll expend a few brain cells.

- Your Kxx is hitting a void so you just got moted to a 6 count on offense.
- You usually get bad splits on auctions like this.
- While on some days you will make 6 or even 7, on many other days you aren't even making 5. Even when you are making 5, you might nail 5 for 500/800, so bidding game isn't a tangible gain.

By the way, I lead a heart. Clubs are probably 6-4 and we can't get partner in to lead a 2nd round.
Hi y'all!

East raised with Ax and S are 2-2 so they lose

1S,1H,2D+1C. For + 500 at the other table they play at 4M for +620.

Partner agreed that bidding 5S was a mistake but not a blunder as i think it is.
