MP, robot tourney, best hand South


We were in reasonable company, scoring 44% for taking 5D 3 down undoubled. But as 5H also makes it was definitely a missed opportunity.

My thoughts are that GIB North should make a cue raise rather than 4H, and if bidding 4H to make should at least be cracking 5D.
But perhaps y'all think I should double?

North misbid horribly. It should probably try 4d? Doubling by south would be ludicrous, 4h just shows a lot of hearts, on the hands North is *supposed* to hold, I wouldn't be surprised if the opponents made 6 with some frequency.
