Barry Crane System Notes Missing four to the Queen Always a problem or do you always play for the drop? According to the rule, you check your own distribution first. If your combined hands contain a singleton, you play for this suit to break 3-1 too. If you have two singletons, they balance and so will your mystery suit - play for the drop. If you are 3-0 or 2-1 in a side suit, this also will balance - again play for the 2-2. According to above system notes, finesse.

==================================== Tournament description: Says Boards: 25 Duration: 25 minutes. Is 35 boards possible?

My BBO convention cards Recommend to "Add FD cards". Currently no easy way to add FD cards. ==================================================== My BBO Recommend to add "Chat Manager" in main page MY BBO. This will allow to be more visible for frequent use.

FD convention card available here. This is where I make it available. You can also view it for correction if necessary. I am unable to view for competitive section (When opponents opens the bidding). I send mine to http://bridgewithdan.com/. He can post it.

This happened at BBO ACBL speedball Tournament. After the result, TD ruled and corrected score to Ave - for using illegal NT range. I would like to know whether it is legal or illegal call. Based on that, I have to revise my CC. We play 1NT as 3 suited t/o (6-14) and dbl as power dbl (15+). This is the conversation I had: ->ACBL_nn: brd1 why was adjusted? ACBL_nn (Lobby): you have used an illegal 1nt overcall range of 6-14. it is not permitted by the gcc. no more than 5pt range is allowed for a nt bid or a nt overcall bid ->ACBL_nn: not true ->ACBL_nn: pls check in the forum ACBL_nn (Lobby): yes true., you may refer to the gcc under disallowed paragraph 7 ->ACBL_nn: this was discussed in the bridge forum, I will repost again, this is allowed ACBL_nn (Lobby): it is not allowed in the acbl tournaments ACBL_nn (Lobby): http://www.acbl.org/assets/documents/play/...ntion-Chart.pdf ACBL_nn->Tournament: I am repeating since there seems to be some confusion as to what is allowed and not allowed in these acbl tournaments ACBL_nn->Tournament: !H All ACBL events are Zero Tolerance Events. Be nice! ACBL General Convention Chart applies. NO Multi, Wilkosz, nor mid-chart. Post your convention card or play the basic SAYC one provided for you by default on BBO. Self alerting is required. ACBL_nn->Tournament: GCC chart only ACBL_nn->Tournament: event:http://www.acbl.org/assets/documents/play/Convention-Chart.pdf TD number removed per policy requirement. ACBL_nn (Lobby): that is not what disallowed the call... the call was disallowed on the pt range. RS99 (Lobby): np...chg cc to 9-14 for 1nt overcall ->RS99: ok

GCC convention chart, competitive section 3 According to this what should be the 1NT overcall range for using competitive section 3a and 3b. 3. NOTRUMP OVERCALL for either a) two-suit takeout showing at least 5–4 distribution and at least one known suit (At the four level or higher there is no requirement to have a known suit.) or b ) three-suit takeout (at least three cards in each of the three suits.) ACBL TD rules this 1NT overcall or direct range has to be within 5HCP range. TD site this based on disallowed section, No. 7. CONVENTIONAL RESPONSES, REBIDS AND A CONVENTIONAL DEFENSE TO AN OPPONENT’S CONVENTIONAL DEFENSE after natural notrump opening bids or overcalls with a lower limit of fewer than 10 HCP or with a range of greater than 5 HCP (including those that have two non-consecutive ranges) and weak two-bids which by partnership agreement are not within a range of 7 HCP and do not show at least five cards in the suit. Is it illegal to use 6-14HCP for 1NT overcall range for 3 suited takeout and no conventional responses used?

What is PIN in the profile?

Final Results: Pair 1 scores as 6.04 imps Pair 2 scores as 6.33 imps. Pair 1 is placed above pair 2 in the final result. Is there a bug in the final report?

Is the alert and full disclosure required after the bid made. My guess: Am I correct? 2♥ = Not required. Reason: Cue-bid 3♥ = Not required. Reason: Cue-bid 2♠ = Not required. Reason: Natural. 3♠ = Not required. Reason: Natural.

Web version is good for Vugraph watching. You can open many tables and watch all in the same time. Windows version, You can watch only one table.

Home page Click on "Help me find a game". click on "Play - I want to find or start my own table". click on "I want to start a new table". click on "Teaching". "start table". click on "south - click to sit". Robot Pops up and hides Click to sit. May be word like this "Sit (Click)" may give spacing for Robot pop up. I can resize the window by dragging to full size, still complete wording is not visible. "Sit (Click)" instead of "Click to Sit " may give spacing for reading. Bidding Table, "Click to Sit" this is not there. So, this is ok.

I like Chat manager concept. This can be used for prealert messages. I requested for prealert box for Suggestions for the Software.

Chat Manager: I can create message and save. I can click on the message from chat manager and it pastes in the chat message area without a recipient. I get the warning for No recipient. Now, I can not clear the message. The cursor is the message area and right click, menu pops up. "clear chat" is not functioning. Now I select all and clear chat not functioning. Now, I select all "Delete" works. Prefer clear chat to function instead of multiple actions.

"Warning message" Too many times to read the same message. Time consuming to close the activity.

Keyboard option is preferable than moving the mouse to a specific location to go to "Back" and click. Takes more time and mouse is quicker, jumping and annoying. "Esc" Keyboard should do "Back" function.

....

Bridge is dying: Too much Alert procedure. Law and rules helps too much to the defensive team. Standardize the various system notes to establish the non-alert bidding method. Deviation from non-standard system notes will only require alerts.
