Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- Tribute to ACBLMerge the "Classic" View
- Jay, I like it because the "Classic View" does not munch as much screen real estate as the present incarnation, which I expect will evolve as the elements of the design are better adapted, keeping the user in mind.
- To Show or Not To Show?

- T-Tests: World Championship Butlers
- Do recall the t-test is invented to monitor the quality of stout, in particular, Guinness. Any other use must be classed as inappropriate. Cheers!
- OK, Speraccepts with Stiff...
- Singleton top honor. Already a pair at one of the local clubs wants to extend Stayman to show a singleton top honor. One of our top directors checked with ACBL staff, who found no issues with a 2NT response to show a stiff club and a 3C response to show ...
