4684502 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 Why was a tournament hand stopped abruptly and score posted as "ave" with a 50% rating while we were still playing the hand? We were sure to make contract, plus overtricks which would have given us a higher percentage than the 50% assigned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bbradley62 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 You were playing in an Express Free Automated Fun tournament. These tournaments have a 5-minute time limit on each hand. If 8 full tricks have not yet been completed when the 5-minute time limit expires, everyone receives "average" for the board. If 8 (or more) full tricks have been completed, then the hand is completed by robots and an adjusted score is posted based on that outcome. On the hand in question, only 7 tricks had been completed.
