shail100 Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 agree whole heartedly. defending with pd who is not giving or following signals is a complete waste of time. personally my best boards with robots are usually when defending. it just means i might have above average skill to figure something in caos. but it is not fun all all. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In a non-BH game the robots you're more likely to defend, and you'll be without this advantage. And you also don't have a partner who's trying to help you.

gwnn Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 The point is not what advantage he has over the robot declarer, but what he has over the other human defenders. In principle, we all have the same information as defenders, but in practice, most of us ignore most of it. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
