cloa513 Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Better to ask in BBO support but anyway you don't use the explain button to explain partner's bid but rather your own in open bridge tables. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantumcat Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 In Options, there is a tick box labelled 'Keyboard entry for bidding/play". Tick that, and now when you type "2s" during the bidding, you will make a 2♠ bid. In the play, make sure you always type the suit first: otherwise it will select a random card from your hand. Example, a spade is led and hearts are trumps and you hold ♠void, ♥AKJ82, ♦6, ♣K42. If you accidentally type "2h" instead of "h2" you could easily find yourself discarding a club on this trick.
