- How many !d cards does this 2!d bid show?
- That's a very bad thing to do in standard. In precision, with partner being limited, wrongsiding 1nt is no big deal. In standard, after 1n you may end up in 3nt and wrongsiding that could be terrible.
- Speedball Claim
- There are lots of reasons claims are rejected, the top reasons are in my opinion 1) they can't figure out how to click the button to accept a claim 2) they are wondering what you are going to do with the low clubs in the dummy You are thinking ...
- Delayed Viewing - Best of Both Worlds
- This is a great idea, and to me, it would only make sense to have commentators comment on the delayed match rather than the live match. Honestly if I were a vugraph commentator I would feel strange to be commenting to noone, no reason that the commentating can't be ...
- Speedball Claim
- 1) west clearly forgot all the diamonds weren't just high, or their brain assumed that they didn't need the fourth round 2) I doubt a player like that would ever finesse for the jack of diamonds. However they might play a diamond to the 10 thinking it was ...
- Youngest Life Master

- BBO table boot
- I heard if when making the table you put permission required to play it gets rid of the boot. It hasnt worked for me if you change the settings after the table is created. Also, you can just type something into the chat, that will reset your timer.
- A junior defense
- It's obvious that declarer doesn't have the ace of spades. When you hold qt in clubs and declarer finesse as their first action, they must have a 43 or 44 fit, but missing the qtxxx{x} they might only be able to get 1 additional trick from the ...
- Calling all Bergen Raisers!
- With 4333 and minimum it's usually right to treat the hand as a 3 card raise since you have no ruffing value, the 4th trump carries less weight. Just like with 5332 you don't need to leap to 4M. Forcing to the 3level with this hand vul at ...
