I have got exactly what I told the robot, 6 spades, 4 diamonds, 18-22 total points. It has NOTHING to suggest it will make an unexpected trick on defence. So why does it double? That is clearly, 100%, my call. I note in passing that its description says 6+ HCP, which I am struggling to locate.

We're lucky the spades split 2-2 to prevent an overtrick.

Robots do not handle double well. Mike

You are 100 percent correct, Mike.

If you want them to do better, free the robots, allow them to teach themselves. All they can do now is what they are told, don't blame the robots.
