Since some of us actually like to socialize or just discuss a hand while playing bridge we think it might be nice to have the option to set a delay interval between deals. With this option there should also be an icon that the host can click on to deal before the delay interval is up. There would need to be a notification on the open table list showing which tables have a deal delay so new players are not complaining that the table is too slow. These people make bridge less enjoyable for some of us. Why do we need this, because it makes the site more real. Right now it is like playing a video game. The cards just keep coming at you and you have no time to think about or discuss the last hand before the next hand is dealt. The hands come continuously and very fast. This good sometimes but not all the time. Please chime in, BBO said I should post this for consideration on the discussion forum.
