A few days ago in a Robot Reward - Best Hand tourney, I held a 2=5=2=4 17-count and opened 1♥. The GIB on my left doubled. The GIB on my right bid 1♠. I figured it couldn't hurt to throw in a 2♣ bid. The GIB on my left doubled that; the double was passed out.

Dummy came down with a 0-count...I guess not too surprising...with two clubs and FIVE hearts.

Okay, this kind of situation is rare, but whatever kept GIB from going back to hearts in that situation needs fixing.

I had a partner do this once, but it was at the 5 level and he was 1-5 in my suits. So all in all the bots are well ahead.

Do you have a hand record of this?

Unfortunately not. It was right near the end of the tourney, and I was leading. I opted to simply stop playing rather than score -1700. (This decision was successful, as I did win the tourney. Taking the -1700 would have knocked me out of the money entirely.)
