I'll be honest... GIB bidding to a slam and you misplaying it is not the most compelling evidence for GIB's incompetence. Like, we've all had moments where GIB ruins our lives; this one was on you.

Why can't it be a void? Because it's given as showing the AC, that's why. You can complain about it showing that, but I'm not convinced you can complain about GIB thinking you have it.

Thanks Dozy. Indeed I misplayed it. Is there a way I can retract this post? your honesty appreciated.
I was so pissed off GIBBO had only 9 HCP I failed to notice DQJ dropped. Blaming GIBBO stands.

Not agreeing about void. Many times first round cuebids are made and blurb shows "Ace"

It has been confirmed several times in the past by developers that while the description says Ace, it means Ace or void, so this isn't an issue.

But GIB just doesn't know how to cue-bid.

Gib also misdefended!!
Person on lead has 2 aces including A in your void.
Is it that hard to find a trump lead which will beat this contract.

A lead is brutal!

So your no worse than Gib.
Not sure if that is a compliment? lol


Sarcasm is a state of mind
