Consider being the East bot
How would you progress with this hand
I am the Human bidding South at another table
They say Bridge is a bidders game but I felt aggrieved
MPs -although IMP would have been brutal too

Probably 2NT forcing for me.
Also since this is a GIB discussion - and on the question of "what would the robots do?" - it would be interesting to include a four robot table result for each hand in the daylongs and challenges.

Hi Pilowsky

Sorry I hadn't revisited this and it wasn't a well presented theme to start with

What happened was that these bots reached 4 hearts after a weak 2 and because I as the human at another table made the mistake of a 1 spade opening bid, my bots found a slam
It seemed unfair

I will post the hand

EDIT Correction - that second hand is the 50% human
The top human (and their bot partner) restricted the bots to 1 fewer tricks

I thought it (the bidding) rather unlucky
