What does GIB want me to do over 3D? I thought he would be longer and maybe this 5-2 fit would be better. I would prefer GIB bid 3S or pass (or give better definition to 3D).

I also notice that GIB seems to bid 1NT with 3 card support and a sub-minimum hand a lot. Is this systemic or is it the result of simulations? Since it seems to do this a lot, maybe 1NT should not promise 6+ HCP.

FWIW, I'm not really sure what I think of my 2NT call.

Perhaps GIB should bid 3C to show such a hand given the silly basic system- its just plain difficult for you to show your hand given GIB just 3 spades and club honours and four spades isn't too terrible

I guess he picked the wrong suit to make a game try in
3♣ or 3♦ should lead back to either 3 or 4♠
