I am always happy to see improvements but I do not see it here. Gib will not now takeout doubles even at the one level,will not leave 3nt still,will not leave any weak bids at all still. Taking longer to play a card when its the same suit. It really has no game at all. But when Gib does all bids weak or otherwise its ok but ignores partners same bids. Its most frustrating now having to make silly bids oneself and pray it will pass. Its all luck if Gib passes any bids.

Lovely: According to the BBO Hand Records, you have not played any hands with the new (advanced) GIB. What game(s) have you been playing in? Are you sure that you're not using the basic (unimproved) GIB?

When we update GIB, the updates apply to both basic and advanced robots. The only GIB that isn't updated is the version included in the Windows download.

The difference in the advanced robots is that they're allowed to use simulations to deviate from the exact bidding rules, they use a more sophisticated declarer algorithm, and they're given more time for simulations when playing and defending.
