No suggestions? Seriously? Not even "make your contract"?

Well, sure, but mostly this one was so stupid it made me laugh and I think in past they've said it's hard to change anything about how it plays the cards.

Its the shocking play to trick 1 that's really bad- leave the ace of spades as an entry, then Gib should easily be able to cash out 9 tricks at least before trying the clubs. Which 50/100 simulations suggested that appalling play.

Maybe it decided that diamonds won't be 4-0 and if diamonds are 3-1 it can protect against a lead through the king of clubs by always finessing in diamonds (and therefore it has entry in diamonds and it doesn't matter what spade it plays). At trick five he just pulled the wrong card.

Does GIB play double calls for lead of suit bid by dummy?
Does GIB play lightner doubles against slams?

these are all things usually we learn as novices
