My pass of the double is a bit of a risk. But not as much of a risk as the double, I feel, relying as it does on West rescuing.

Maybe 8 card suits aren't programmed into the database when it's not the opener.:o

A while ago, GIB made a negative double in this sequence

1♣ (1♠) Double!

We eventually ended up defending and I found out GIB had 8 clubs at trick 1 when there was a sluff-ruff :P
