You hold [hv=d=s&v=n&s=s6ha962dak43caj87]133|100|Scoring: MP[/hv] and open 1♣, partner bids 1♦ and RHO bids 1♠... What do u do next? We were playing acol but doesnt this apply to SAYC too? Steve

[hv=d=n&v=b&n=s52hat32dj4ck9652&s=sakqj86hdaq986ca7]133|200|Scoring: MP[/hv] We play Benji Acol (No Opps bidding) and it went p-2D* 3C-3S 3NT-4D 4H-4NT* 5D*-5NT 6D*-6S 2D- Game Forcing hand 4NT- RKCB 3014 6D 1K making 7 after heart lead. Any better way to bid this hand?

Thats great news Fred, My main reason for asking is that I've started to help in the BIL as a new BIL grad and will be starting to Mentor some Acol players and I have a reasonable acol card set up by being able to send it to the mentees they can practice bidding with it and during play! Its much easier to see something tangible that in situation A bid this and so on One of the other advantages of FD that I see is to give BILlies confidence when they are bidding online to a 'fixed' CC card with some level of detail and also allow teachers / mentors to discuss systems where people can actually see what their bids should mean b4 they make them which is much easier to do. Is there any word on a basic SAYC card I know peoples feelings but most BILlies play it often! It will also hopefully stop some of the result swings when pick-up partnerships play if of course people can be bothered to set up the CC of course. The only danger is the MI issues if people say they are playing one thing and start doing something different The issue about being able to look at your CC is true but when I started I had it on the desk in front of me - only helps online of course not in f2f competition I have always viewed playing online as a learning experience combined with opportunity to play with friends anytime around the world and FD will enhance it even more. Steve

Hi Fred, I love FD and can see limitless possbilities for it and have loved 'playing' with it so far. One of them as a teaching aid now is there any scope/intention for BBO to automatically interface with FD to show what the next bids should mean or will the end-user need to update the bidding into FD in line with the live auction? The other side of the coin is the negative inferences for opps will if they are able to see the potential rebids and meanings but there is the danger of MI if they rely on it ughhhh! It will also prevent MI calls in tourneys etc or allow people to override with a manual alert if the call is incorrect and they don't realise until opps have bid? Thanks Steve

I would just bid 2♠ as partner has asked for a preference - he has at most 4 cards in the minors so I could easily have a 7-0 fit missing KQJ9 ♣ and 3 diamond losers. It must be easier to make 8 tricks than 9 here even in a 5-2 fit? Steve

My favourite bit of advice was if you have shown everything you have don;t show it again partner isn;t deaf! Steve

I had a very similiar hand in 4th Seat and opened it 2♠ but would open it 1♠ in any other seat. As I play weak 2s for the 4th seat bid (a) do u alert and (:P how do u describe it? Steve

Hi all, Had an interesting discussion yesterday in BIL that I am convinced that 1S-p-2H always shows 5♥, an "Advanced" player (in BIL v.strange) was arguing it could show 4 which I strongly disagreed with although I normally play ACOL I was convinced it;s the same in SAYC. Can someone confirm I am not talking rubbish and the reasons why it should / must show 5. My thoughts are that it is better to show a 4 card minor and give opener a chance to bid 2H if they have 4 than to force the 1 Spade opener to bid 2S on a five card suit with a weak hand? Steve

I guess we're responding to the weak 2, I might bid 2NT (feature ask or Ogust) and then sign-off in 3♠ to hopefully stop the opps finding their nice minor fit... Steve

But don't tell him a BILlie got 540 lol :) :P I found this set very educational too thx Ben etc!

Hmm I went for 3♦ as a long suit game try, I'm not as worried about ♣ as I have may have only 2 losers there but I hate my ♦s where I may lose 3 off the bounce. Saying that I rarely use Long Suit trys so not that familiar. Could someone explain why here that 3♣ is more appropriate? Thanks Steve

BILlie type question here, what would 2♥ instead of 2NT mean, I play it as an unassuming cue bid irrespective of support normally xx though for obvious reasons. We have a minimum for our overcall but we have an extra ♣ so surely 3♣ tells all to partner here and he is now captain... Steve

Merge overwrites the old records with the new ones so specific new auctions take preference. This means with the ACOL one I've been playing with you create the Benji bids as a seperate file and it will overwrite the old one including the weak2s this is great as it allows a modular build and the introductions of conventions to certain bids like puppet stayman / Jacoby 2NT / Ogust / Feature Asking. The same goes with correcting system files if people post a correction file you can merge it into the old one and correct the bids in one easy step! You then need to think how deep to go after conventional responses... One thing I've learnt is how much I've never thought what certain sequences should mean and I've learnt things on route! Cheers Steve

This is based on the Standard English PDF found on the English Bridge Union Site.

I agree with Richard, its been great fun playing with the tool and when you get more convoluted sequences trying to figure out what they should mean has been a real eye-opener and a great learning curve... Fred has suggested that a conversion tool would be available if the format changes as he appreciates how much work people have done in advance. One thought I did have was a seperate forum for each standard .bss file developed for BBO when Fred asks for help to discuss any contentious sequences to get a common view? For example 1C-1S-2D-2H vs 1C-1S-2D-3H what should the jump mean if anything or is it an impossible bid and the answer may be different for ACOL than SAYC or BBO Advanced? Steve

Hi Ben, You can merge files quite easily and I have a subset for transfers / Benji Acol 2 bids to replace std English and so on but this replaces particular sequences with new ones but doesn't deal with the issue of merging 1C-p-1D-4NT where 4nt is blackwood and 1NT-2C-2D-3C-4C-4NT blackwood unless you have a file which has every bidding sequence up to 4NT possible with every variant after 4NT in the merge file and you then need to edit everyone where it isn't Blackwood in your system . I was thinking of along the lines it might be more efficient for both the user and the application (depends how the .BSS will be stored whether its a total read into storage or file reads each alert) that there was a .bss behind the scenes which 'alerted' the Blackwood bid according to a tick / list box or something? This would be a substantial file indeed! unless I'm missing something. Steve

When Full Disclosure is integrated into BBO Would it be possible to have a subset of responses that could be automatically loaded from a pulldown list for say RKCB 3014 / 1403 and reg Blackwood as the number of potential bids to get to 4NT and then the myriad of responses may increase the filesizes exponentially? I'm yet to come up with an effective way of cutting and pasting this into FD? Steve

I see no reason why Bridge couldn't work on TV but I suspect to get a footing then you need the gambling element of Poker ie Rubber or alternatively to show it as a team game teams of 8 to increase the 'interesting hands' so you get the competitive element and a chance to show off some skill / judgement . You need a simple probably natural system so non-bridge people have a chance to vaguely understand with limited frequent gadgets like stayman and transfers say. You also probably need USA vs Invitational team with the likes of Zia and other flamboyant personalities like a Ryder Cup or Solheim Cup that sort of thing and it might have a chance? Justin in his Leather jacket might attract the younger female audience lol Steve
