it has been my experience that the bots freely raise to game on hands like this so i did. then my bot partner bid rkc. i decided to lie and bid 5h (forgetting it coud be 2 or 5). of course my bot partner bid 6 and then
with the bad split im down 2.
my qestion is does he bid 6 regardless of 2 or 5? most human partners wont bid rkc with this hand btw.

You could raise to game on less than that - but bots place 19-22 points on a splinter, so maybe there is some logic in his RKC despite your discouraging 4S.
Having bid RKC, I think he has every right to assume 5 not 2 here.

you know pesky tom it is difficult to be nice to someone who always seems to make negative posts. maybe it makes you feel better. i think my post was clear. if you didnt understand it that is
your problem. perhaps you would not bid 4 on that hand and believe me any expert player would. and NO expert player would bid rkc on the bot hand in that sequence. NEVER

I don't think I always make negative posts, but I respect your right to say so if that is your impression (preferably without insulting me by distorting a nickname).
I understood your post, I don't think you understood mine.
I would always bid 4 on your hand (or even less, as I said) and never bid RKC on the bot hand, even more so if partner replied 4S to 3S.
I would never agree that a splinter has to show 19-22, but the bot imposes that agreement.
If I had the problem of being a bot I would always assume 5 not 2 (2 is inconsistent with the auction and I am incapable of reflecting on the implications of 5).

That's a ridiculous assumption. Having bid Blackwood with 0 keycards, North has a clear 5♠ signoff. Maybe, just maybe, South would continue bidding holding all 5 keycards since he knows his partner asked with 0.
