I guess you can't expect much with a program that can't lead an Ace against 7NT but I'll make the point anyway.

GIB N held KJ52, A9, KT94, T96. 1D by E, 2C by S, P, and it cuebid 2D. OK, then P and partner bid 2H, natural and forward-going. The only question now is whether to bid 2NT or 3NT, isn't that right? The nullo continuation of 3C is laughable.

Quite honestly I'd prefer it to bid 2NT the first round.

I've never seen GIB make an insufficient bid.

Thanks, corrected overcall to 2C from 2H

And the opening bid was 1♦, not 1♠, which is what made 2♦ a cuebid.

All true, sorry, now corrected.
