You are GIB and you hold something like (sorry, I can't find the hand anymore)
Qxx
xx
Axxx
Kxxx

You are dealer and you pass

pass-(pass)-1-(pass)
2-(pass)-pass!-2
3???

OK, this isn't technically a fielded psyche, I know. But I still found it interesting that GIB would make this bid.

P-1; 2-P = "No suitable call -- 6+ ; 11+ HCP; strong rebiddable ; biddable ; 12-13 total points"

I don't play Drury but I remember reading that 2 - 3 showed a real club suit, which is probably what GIB is thinking. I've no idea what pass by the opener might mean

[EDIT] just seen explanation by nullve, thanks. In that case 3 looks a little timid.

Is the issue here that GUBBO passed a drury 2c?
Also, whenever one passes p-p-1x-p-1y-p-p-1/2y the 1y assumes 4 card support and takes another bid. Seen it many times.

No, sorry if this wasn't clear. GIB's human partner passed the 2 bid (having four small spades and six clubs, so it wasn't really a psyche but that's not the point)

Assuming that the explanation of pass cited by nullve is how GIB agrees to play, then I think the issue is that GIB bid only 3 knowing that he has a promising double fit in and .
