Benellis58 GIB bashing on repeat Groundhog Day

Posted Today, 07:56
OMARHEUM has sent some more hands. For this one he wrote "East opens 1C where I think most would open 1H."
I don't know if "most" WOULD open 1H, but I think they SHOULD, because the hand is not good enough for a reverse, so in many situations an EW heart fit will be missed when East opens 1C, although that was not the case here.
The GIBBO robots always open their longer suit whether it's right or wrong on any particular hand, because they apparently never learned about prepared bidding.
The GIB definitions are as annoying as usual. For example, in the definition of 1C, GIB feels that it's SUPER-important to inform us that 1C is a "Minor suit opening". I guess GIB figures no one would EVER have figured that out by themselves. Next, GIB tells us that South's ONE spade OVERCALL is a..."one-level overcall". Oh yeah, really, REALLY important to mention that, GIB.
Here's a special request, GIB: Please put a sock in it.
