How to share bidding table hands

[lakshmanok]

The bidding table feature in BBO is quite useful, but we'd like a teacher to be able to look over our bidding (offline) ... How can we do this?

 

I can save the hands and look at them. But this works only for my username.

 

Going to bridgebase.com/myhands and typing in my username only shows hands played, not bidding table hands.

 

The "mail to user" feature works, but only for individual hands. And it's hard to get a discussion going that way.

 

Suggestions?

if your using Windows you could do a quick screen capture of your dekstop

ctrl-c copies the screen

ctrl-v pastes it it paint

then you could print each hand

time consuming but will work

 

if you use the old version of BBO

there used to be directory with your nickname

in it usually were the hands you play, I dont know if it saved the ones you bid though

 

 

I am reallly suprised that there isnt a way to save the deal as a pbn or lin file then

you can email those and they can open then with their choice of program

There is a way to save hands as handviewer links, and send them to other people either within BBO, or by email, or use them any way you wish. To do that, click Options at the bottom of the My results tab, then Export deal, then Handviewer link. This gives you a tinyurl link that you can copy and use outside BBO.

 

It is possible to save all deals in a folder of hands (click Options > Save all deals). But it's not possible to send the whole folder to someone, you still need to send each hand separately.

How do I share a hand with someone so that they can load it into their teaching/practice table?

Better still, how can I share a folder of hands?

 

(sending to member doesn't seem to let them save the hand to the folders )
