You can do this right now on the BBO. This is the website...

BBO software is customizable.. especially nicely with relation to sound. Within the program, click on the little icon along the bottom of the window that looks like a "gear" (it is yellow circle with white axel sticking in it.. if that doesn't help you identify it, it is the icon on the bottom of the screen immedately to the left of the two ACES of spades. Find the check box that says SOUND, click on the button next to that check box that says "CUSTOMIZE" Thne find the line in that says "your turn to bid".. make sure it is highlighted (and of course a check mark is in the sound box).

BBO stores the hand on your computer if you have "log file" on your computer set.. you can load the logged file and click through the hands while checking the results at the other tables with internet explorer.

 

When you search the hands on the myhands site link, all the hands you turn up are yours.. when you click on the "traveller" to see the other tables (well all tables), your result is highlighted nicely....
