Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- Which version of Precision?
- This is a very interesting question, if we happen to play in the US, would 1M-1NT game forcing be illegal (unless in some high level events)?
- Bidding-practice webapp
- Nice work! If you could add some more features (like setting up suit length(s), stc), I would actually use it. This way, you just have to bid whatever comes up, not parctice specific situations (we do a lot of relaying in our strong ♣, depending on the situation). My ...
- Best defense against Big Club?
- The most popular defense in Hungary has several names, mostly called Timbuktu: every bid is EITHER a transfer (single suiter), or the next 2 suits above (eg. 1♦ is ♥s OR ♠+♣). This is bad, unless you can preemt with both versions (have fit). Otherwise, by the time ...
- Do You Count Your Cards?
- I always count my cards, but it had happened that two other players (incuding my partner) had not, so we got a penalty. But these days, as we play the MP champs on tablet, we don't have this kind of problem.:)
- Format for National Team Trials
- Hungary All teams are selected by team KO matches. Seeding by Hungarian masterpoint list. 1st plays 4th, etc. Semifinals/finals usually 128 bds. Exception: the mixed teams trials, with the lack of dates available, it was played off over a single weekend (64-bd semis and final). Sometimes there are less ...
- Roman Key Card Queen ask
- We play spiral scan, so first step always denies the asked value, higher steps show the card and the next in line. So this time, 5♥ means no Q, 5♠ is queen but not the next king, 5NT shows queen and the first king, but not the second ...
- Accusation of Plagiarism against Mark Horton
- This has to be at the discretion of the directors. I was doing the bulletin in Opatija (European Youth Pairs), and as a journalist, I was allowed to watch both sides of the screen - as a spectator only, this is a no-no, of course. (there was no BBO coverage.) I ...
- The Next Step
- Once more a reference to another card game I used to play, Magic: the Gathering. Their rules are built up around casual, or serious tournament games, they call them Rule Enforcment Levels, I think there are 5, 1 being the most lenient (for beginners, club/shop games, etc), and 5 ...
- We play with tablets on Sunday
- That was one of the reasons I stopped playing on BBO with random strangers - always getting the 'pls play' comments, or worse, getting kicked off the table for not insta-clicking. This is not a horse race, or not even poker. Sometimes you have to stop to think, let us have ...
- 1430 or 3041?
- As it was said but not stressed before: it all comes from the laziness of people wanting to play 4NT RKC with all suits. If you tried minorwood/kickback, this question would never come up. I heard people say '4S as rkc H? I could never remember that...' - well, sorry ...
