1920x1080, thank you!

Hi all, On my 15" laptop, Chrome, in the html5 version, it seems when I am offered a claim, it covers the tricks taken, so might be hard to calculate the correct claim. Will add screenshot when I can. Thanks, Dan

There is a new area of the site for a monthly fee, BBO Prime, that might work https://www.bridgebase.com/doc/prime/About_Prime.php?v3b=web&v3v=5.1.9

Thank you!

Hi, I haven't tried in html5 version until now, but in Deal source on a teaching or bidding table, under "Constraint Sets", I can create sets, rename sets, but there is never a form that is visible (Chrome, Win10) to actually set the HCP, suits, etc. The advanced part works ok on its own. The Constraint Sets is more common, not sure if it's just me having the problem. Thanks, Dan

It's not so much a change but a peek at how you might play it with a regular partner after you are used to the basics (depending on what your starting point is, that could be the distant past). You want to add parts or a whole section that is played by... the best! The SMP book was a simplification (except for the add-on sections) and this goes all the way to the end and fills out whatever you may want to add that is proven to be successful. Thanks, Dan

Hi all, Greco-Hampson Precision, a pro implementation of SMP (with the 1C-1H denying 5+S and 1C-1S as 5+S 8+ HCP) is now available at bridgewithdan.com. Thanks, Dan

Thanks! I can "follow" them.

Hi all, How do you call the director after the tournament is over, for an adjustment on hand 12 e.g.? I can understand this may not be possible if this is their break time but the "call director" button is not available after the tournament ends. Thanks, Dan

Hi, For me in html5, the number overlays some of the end of the name if the name is long for one of the other players at the table. Looks like 8 or 9 chars long runs into a "3+". Thanks, Dan

and not S-H-C-D (alternating black/red)

Hi, For hand diagram view (my favorite), it would be nice to have the option to have bidding area stay in the center like in flash, rather than on the left, with bid pad on the right.

Hi, I would like option for the bid explanation to not automatically appear, but rather highlighted bid, then when you click the bid the same explanation box does appear in that place (then if you want, click Explain button). But to have it always pop up automatically is distracting.

I would like option in picture of cards view to let suit order be S-H-D-C throughout the hand (like in diagram view).

I also would like option to not have trumps moved to end during play.

From Gambling with an Edge interview series:

Non-natural system discussion board would work.

The price for the new Standard Modern Precision book at my site (published my Masterpoint Press) is very good, given it's like the old PDF's with lots of new real deal examples and extra quizzes and new material. If you are a systems geek, have the old PDF's, and can play the system well already, there's no need to get the new book. If you are new to Meck Lite or still need more examples and quizzes, or want a more complete system to play with what you already know, it's worth it.

I just had a thought for an idea that might be easy to implement. If you follow a person in a tournament, there is no visual indicator you are following them, other than if you right click on them again, it says "stop following [xxxxx]". It seems there would be an easy way to put some little tag by their name with an icon like "f" or picture of spectacles that indicates you are following them. Maybe push to future?

Hi all, I have always understood 1C-1H-1N to allow for a 5431 without a 5M, so I would have gone with that to begin with, and have the understanding that opener can refuse to play in responder's 6crd major with 3NT (and it not be serious). Thanks, Dan

I rented it and thought it was very good.

Hi all, The Tarzan Club writeup is available at my systems page now. Thanks, Dan

Hi all, It is now available at http://bridgewithdan.com/systems/ Thanks, Dan

Suggestion: - allow default tab in focus on right to be "Who's Online" for those who don't use the News Feed. Even when the News was a popup I always closed it. (or, let it remember the last tab you were on, or if it is a "high-priority" news item notify the user somehow but not force them to see newsfeed every time on login)

Hi all, You can check out observations on that system for free at: http://bridgewithdan.com/systems/index.html Thanks, Dan
