I tried to access many time (whole day), but I had no luck: 'Firefox can't find the server at www.bbotv.com.' Opera: 'You tried to access the address http://www.bbotv.com/v2/client_v13/bbo.php?m=k, which is currently unavailable.' Older beta does not work, too. (I cleared my browsers cache.) BBOWin is O.K.

A ) I don't want a third person (host). I just want to practice with my partner. B ) I didn't know that GIB is free. LOL

My suggestion was on June 2 2004: "One of the best feature of BBO for practice is Partnership Bidding. Unfortunately this feature is not too popular, only 2-3 tables are there. Why? I think the main reason is that after the end of the bidding East-West cards are not visible. I would like to see East-West cards too after bidding, so we could analyse how good our contracts..."

Nice work, Fred. After a short test I have noticed only one thing: team colors are badly missing. Gabor

Hi Fred, Under Firefox Flash version works fine now. I got an icon and a message, had to install flash version 7,019,0. After downloading BBOFlash is O.K. Under IE6 BBOFlash still has no luck. Thanks, Gabor

I dont see the login screen. I can see Loading. Please wait. And after 1 second again, a little bit hereinafter. Loading... and a blank screen.

I can see this: Version Information 'You have version 9,0,115,0 installed' Gabor

IE7 is not available for my operating system (Win2000). I tried BBOFLASH under Mozilla Firefox, it does not work. Gabor

Hi Fred, I can see only a greyish white blank IE6 window after 'Loading. Please wait...' (It's the same old problem, version 4 did not work on my computer also.) Gabor

I have tried BBOTV many times (it was the previous version, I think) and everything was OK. But now something is wrong, because I get: Loading. Please wait..., and a blank blue screen :( Gabor

I have the same problem, Fred (Flash 9, IE6). After the Loading message, I can see only a blank blue IE window. Gabor

Bidding box (top right) has only 4 basic rows. Might be better at least 5 as a default. Gabor

In a pack there are 40 points. A pair that gets more points finds its theoretical value in following table: Expected points: HCP NV Vul 20 0 0 21 50 50 22 70 70 23 110 110 24 200 290 25 300 440 26 350 520 27 400 600 28 430 630 29 460 660 30 490 690 31 600 900 32 700 1050 33 900 1350 34 1000 1500 35 1100 1650 36 1200 1800 37 1300 1950 38 1300 1950 39 1300 1950 40 1300 1950 This is the value of expected points which a pair should get with the specified number of HCPs in hand. It is compared with the real value of the received points. The difference between those values is transformed to IMP's. For example if a pair received 50 points more than it was predicted, they get 2 IMP's. If the difference is -170, which means a pair had less than expected they lose 3 IMP's. The rest of rules are exactly the same as in the Chicago system. Regards, G.
