Fortunately, all ended well, as we made 3D for a shared top of (a mere) 65.79 % on the board (yes, it was "shared" by MANY players)...but that was QUITE a 3D call...RED AGAINST WHITE (!!!)...by the GIBBO robot in the North with his flattish 4-3-4-2 (!) TWO(!)-count (!), with both his points in jacks...in a GIBBO system where his partner South could easily have had only a THREE-card diamond suit.
One of the COUNTLESS weaknesses of these GIBBO losers is that they never give any thought whatsoever to the vulnerability.

Why is West doubling 5D? Why is the GIB definition of West's double so typically useless? Why does East PULL the double to 5H?
The only one of those three questions that I can answer is the final one: East pulls the double because he knows that his "partner" West, being a GIBBO robot, is a raving lunatic. Note that East's PULL of the double does NOT correspond to the hand he SHOULD have according to the GIB definition of 5H.

West leads a heart, won by dummy's ace, as declarer South pitches a club.
At trick two, declarer calls for dummy's club 6. "Defender" East, with J8 doubleton, plays the jack. WHY? This second hand HIGH stupidity was a hallmark of the GIB robots, who - as hard as this may be to believe - were even WORSE than the wretched GIBBO robots, thanks to some small improvements made by Lorserker a short while ago.
"Defender" West wins his club ace and of COURSE immediately plays another CLUB. WHY? Well, this question I can answer: He plays another CLUB because...these truly WITLESS and totally incompetent GIBBO fleabrains LOVE to return the suit DECLARER just played...undoubtedly because they ARE fleabrains. BTW, I sincerely apologize to any and all FLEAS that I might have insulted by that comparison!

Here's a simple, straightforward equation:
GIBBO robots = garbage.
GIBBO robots = garbage.

50 % 0n this board. An example of one of the many bad things about the GIBBO system.

It worked out fairly well, but I'm surprised that North passed in passout seat with his 5-5 in the majors.

THREE hearts by North? Doesn't the WORLD open FOUR with that? Meanwhile, let's be very polite to EW and simply and quietly observe that they will probably not win awards for their "defence" on the hand. The GIB definitions will similarly FAIL to win praise.

I have written many very insulting things about the GIB definitions, the GIB/GIBBO system, and the GIB/GIBBO robots.
I must apologize.
Why? Because despite all my efforts, I have probably failed to convey how utterly pathetic and nauseating they are. I'm afraid my vocabulary is not extensive enough to adequately describe the full, sickening wretchedness of the pathetic definitions, the unworkable and antiquated joke of a system, and the world-class incompetence of the robots.
Worst of the worst? Certainly. Lowest of the low? Most definitely. Garbage that should long ago have been incinerated? Indubitably.
But those words don't even come close to adequately describing how truly contemptible and loathsome the GIBBO robots are, so, again I apologize.

At trick three, the GIBBO loser in the West wins his heart ace. At trick four, he has an obvious club shift, but being a GIBBO robot, and therefore being less intelligent than a doorknob, he follows his lifelong sick, twisted, illogical, loser's philosophy of immediately returning the suit DECLARER just played. Thus, the fleabrain returns a heart. And of COURSE he ridiculously returns the heart jack.
Now, even if he had correctly returned a club, I still would have taken 11 tricks, but that doesn't excuse the jerk's typically lazy and stupid play.
It was gratifying to see that the two GIBBO numbskulls sitting East-West added yet another complete zero to their massive collection of failures. The only surprising thing is that these repulsive imbeciles don't get a zero on every board they play.

53.6 % on this board for "only" going one down in 4H.
Another fine example of why the GIBBO bidding system stinks like salami that's been sitting in Florida sunlight for seven months and fourteen days:

East opens one CLUB, so of course West leads a...DIAMOND. He scores 7.1 & on the board. His opponents score 92.9 %.

South opens one HEART and later jumps to 2NT over North's 1S response. North raises to 3NT and all pass.
Thus, West is on lead against 3NT with 97652, 7, 752, K1095.
He thinks it's a positively BRILLIANT idea to lead his STIFF (!) 7...of HEARTS...INTO the declarer who OPENED one heart.
Spoiler alert: It was not brilliant. It was also not SANE! Declarer romped home with TWELVE tricks. North-South scored 92.9 % on the board. East- West scored a miserable but TOTALLY well-deserved 7.1 %.
I will begin my next sentence by quoting the late great Janes Brown in the first three underlined words, and then ad-libbing the remainder of the sentence with my own.
"Please, please, please"...INCINERATE these useless, repugnant GIBBO robots and replace them with DECENT ones!

To any bridge player, the diamond situation is obvious at trick one. The "defender" sitting East, however, is not a bridge player (without quotation marks), he is a "bridge player" WITH "quotation marks - meaning in name ONLY, because like ALL GIBBO robots, he hasn't got a CLUE about how to play bridge.
He wins his diamond ace at trick one and switches to his spade queen. ASTONISHINGLY, two entire tricks have been played and he STILL hasn't shown the world how totally incompetent he is!
But such a MIRACLE can't go on forever, so at trick three the jackass confirms his status as one of the all-time worst "bridge players" in history when, braindead dweeb that he is, he goes back to diamonds. Why doesn't this incompetent loser take a job in a circus - where CLOWNS are appreciated?
