3D yes. You only make 3N if Gib has really good diamonds. as you will lose a diamond and opps run clubs
For my partner 3N response to 2N is a hand with such good diamonds.
In 5D if partner doesn't have such perfect trump you lose 2 spades and a trump
i think steve2005 GUBBO does have3NT showing solid d in its arsenal. so it only bid 3d. Now if I evaluate "points" the most disgusting concept ever conceived:
Stiff H Ace 8+2+4 = 12
s ACE = 8
c ACE = 8
which adds up to 28 points. I should bid 7.
If i rein it in and bid 4D maybe that is the right bid.
Problem is there is no valid invite. Unless 4D is THE invite given all possibilities.
if 2S was NOT twice rebiddable might get to 4S as well.
you just feel like being in the coils of a boa constrictor with this horrible bidding system.
