In web and android version I have problem sometime in last time with "History" tab.

GIBs have a lots of errors. It's not happy situation when you got GIB for partner in automated tourneys but sometime they are better players than random players. I don't know how it work with advanced GIBs, maybe they are better, and yes that sequence is apsolutly forcing for me.

"10" is good but "T" is better. One symbol for one card. I never made a mistake that "10" is two cards but "T" would be more bridge style.

I really can't belive this one. In automated tourney where is 2/1 mandatory system by description Robot make this mistake: 1H - 3D isn't D suit that means 10-12 4H+ if Bergen raise. Robot's right bid is simple 1NT in this situation. https://www.bridgebase.com/tools/handviewer.html?bbo=y&myhand=M-1040942438-1617263521

Please fix this. Robot go down easy makeable grand slam contract. I really don't know why it played on this way. It didn't play ruffs than it played expas in spades?!?!?!!?!??

Some of general range is 5-11 and exact six cards (with seven cards 3 in suit is preferably) in open suit. As regards honor someone play with minimum one honor card, someone opens and without any honor. In the narrowest sense weak two is exact six cards in open suit with 8-10 Hps and minimum two (any) honors.

I understood "scramble" mean "escape" so I chose answer PASS. Partner bid good two times double but what the heck 3♥??? You can nothing only PASS 3♥x and after when board is finished say to your partner that he/she is a bad gambler.

Really, but really I don't know where can I countinue our bidding, I know that I've to bid one more time so I've options call my lower minor or ask for stopper in ♥s or bid PASS on blind and take-out double make penalty. So, If you all wish I can admit that I did mistake and I've bid 3♥ on partner double regardless my partner made mistake before me. End of story.

Double from responder isn't penalty, apsolutely never penalty. My opinion is that partner need pass and I rebid double and than my partner can choose bid again or let 2♥x, I can't pass his/her double and I can't know that we've minor game, the best I can in this situation after his/her double is bid 3♥ and forcing auction to some game contract.

I really can't bid game (3nt) without any heart from my side after double. Isn't my mistake, it's hard shape.

Hi. System is Acol. Most player bid and made 4♠, some bid and made 5♣ or 3nt but we wasn't. Does it exist any propery way to bid game? board

I voted 1♠ in all offered situations. I've 11 honors and five cards suit (♠) so I chosen overcall. Those who are said "pass" on poll would you pass in this case if you've additionally K♦ and maybe J♣ or J♦ that would be 14 or 15 honors. It's same situation with 3 or 4 more points, you again risk ♠ lead from Kx♠ but is that reason to hide your points? Is ok to pass in that situation out of fear cause of poor lead? What's more worse "sell" one-two tricks or miss partial contract 2♠ or 3♠?

Although I don't know exactly what mean your rebid 2nt, my opinion is that 4nt is RKC for ♣ (second sequence), and (first sequence) 4♣ take more place for cue-bidding to the farthest 5♣ if cue-bidding dosen't show good shape for slam.

All ok, some features is on another place but in fact all is ok. But, there have one thing that irritates me. In new version has some lag when I'm going throw menus, small lag is also when playing card on the table. On the same computer there aren't such lags on the previous version. Maybe that's only animations but that will be great we can switch off them if we don't wish it. UPDATE: I switched off animations on account menu but there are still lags, shorter lags but them still exist.

Simple 1nt with 5m-4m-2-2 and 15-17. That isn't important postion of vulnerability in this case for me.

I can't belive the most choose ♣ lead. That's suit of player behind leader. I choose ♠ lead, that was unbid suit, if my partner didn't bid x on final contract than my lead is ♥.

1. Double is fine ; 2. 2♠ response, all other is, for me, too weak ; 3. and 4. Overcall 1nt on opponent open 1 in suit is, for me, always 15-18 with 2+ stoppers (in opponent suit of course).

PASS

I clicked first that west should compete to 3♠ but I changed my opinion after see that you open 4-card major. So, change your system to 5-card major opens or be reconciled with bad score on this type of boards.

Q

For me system is "ON" on the same way like we opened 1nt, however possible is change when transfer is in opponents suit like 1♠-1nt-pass-2♥ can be ask for stopper in ♠ and 2♠ natural, meaning by system, for minors or ♣ transfer on the way that used by partnership agreement if you play minor transfers.

I didn't see anything about vulnerability but: Both in white or both in red or we in red opponents in white: 2♣ (after 2♦ I'll rebid 5♦) We in white opponents in red: 6♦ (partner can easy pass or bid something like 7♦ if he/she has hand for it)

Before all I need to say hi and thanks because you make a service that offer playing bridge online just for FREE. I started playing on BBO when still existed BBO software than you have to download and install on computer, after that come BBO web version. I have to admit that I'm very hard moved from software version to web version but after all I moved completely and I rejected software version of BBO. BUT, that what are you doing with new web version, my opinion is that isn't so good. For me is better your old BBO software version than new BBO web version that we can use as preview. Web versions, for me, haven't that touch between players and bridge as software one. In new version you go one step forward and I really haven't that touch more than older web version. In new(er) version(s) is/are lost connection between players and bridge. F.ex. when I install software version I feel that connection that is separate program when player can play bridge, all in it is subordinatet on bridge game, in web version is reduced size cards and bidding boxes in newer one that's just MORE reduced, small, in software version that was BIG just BIG. Isn't cards, bidding boxes, boards the most important things in bridge game? Why that's is smaller and smaller in size in each new version? On the another hand in each new versions have more and more new features that is, for me, unnecessary until main components of bridge game is marginalized.

With 6-9 and fit 2♥, with 10-12 and fit 3♥, with 13+ and 4 or more ♥ 2nt, with 13+ and exactly 3♥ new suit on lowest level in the best suit so 1♠/2♣/2♦.

S 4 ♥ instead x because have two ♠s and escape suit ♦s if partner need it, after it N bid 4♠.
