Another set of really odd plays by GIB using rented advanced robot GIB

http://tinyurl.com/y4w3jjgk


As you can see east robot leads the singleton ♥ King and west fails to overtake and give a ruff. After this start the contract is cold by throwing 2 hearts from hand north hand on the top ♣. Another possibility is throwing 2 ♥ from the south hand on the top ♠ in the north hand. The odds slightly favor using discards from ♠ but because of the of the total suit lengths. This plan is abandoned due to the count signals by defender east and the Ace of ♠ is ruffed.

Then GIB goes and plays totally weird mode 1 ♥ is discarded and then GIB ruffs the low ♣ instead of using the second discard. A 100 % guaranteed for -1 at least. Then the truly bizarre play of finessing east against the 9 of ♦ for -2.

I find myself struggling to understand the logic of these plays. Some type of bug, if not perhaps someone can find what GIB was playing for by analysing the plays.


Thanks in advance for the comments.

This appears to be a random series of plays without any logic.
