						Hi,
#1 I dont like the way S sold his hand, at best he is min for the 2S bid, so I dont like the raise from 3S to 4S
#2 I would have passed with your hand, you provide at best 1 trick for p, also 2S does not promise a 6 carder,
the bid could be made on a 5 carder, i.e. you dont know, if the partner ship has a fit
And I missed the fact, that this is a Robot bidding q.

						2♠ shows 18+ to GIB, and the database tells it to invite with 23. K + two doubletons = 5.
Of course, GIB's logic also tells it that passing is completely obviously better than 3♠, so GIB will always pass your 2♠ bid.
So it depends what "is it correct" means; the only thing worth noting here is the usual aspect that you're playing with a version of the robot that has half of its logic deleted.

						My upper limit for overcalls is higher then usual. I'd never bid X with this south hand. I would argue it is too weak for a double even with the traditional upper limit for an overcall.
Apart from that, I sympathize with 3♠ and understand it got raised to 4♠.

						What are EW agreements after a double of 1♦?
I do hope they impose 1♥ rather than 2♣.
