My hand
Really, Gib wants to force on AKxxx of a void in partners and nothing else.
By the time GIB bids its at the 3-level and essentially game force.

a bit optimistic.
Sarcasm is a state of mind

Didn't 3H create the force?

It's not a bad contract a priori. I'd be happy in this at IMPS.
What is strange is the 3H is forcing. The choice of force or pass. Not my cup of tea I'm afraid.

The bidding looks reasonable and 4 is no worse than 3 although the 3 overcall is wishful thinking for me unless 3 promises 3
The contract makes on anything but a lead. In fact 6 can be made if an unlikely 2 is led and if A sits with East then I think it makes regardless

Without the interference I would expect to game in so not a bad contract in this case.
