Hand Records - Points

I haven't been using BBO for very long, but in looking at the Hand Records for any days on which I played a number of hands with friends, I see two column: Points and Score. At first I assumed that the Points column would be the Rubber Bridge score for that hand. Upon further inspection I found that was not the case. How could the first hand, bid 2♦, made 3, earn a point score of 110? Shouldn't that be a total of 60 points, 40 below the line and 20 above? Obviously, then, it's not Rubber Bridge scoring. What is it? I've Googled and looked everywhere on BBO for the answer but it evades me. Also, I assumed that the Score column is a Duplicate Bridge score for the play of the hand. Is this correct? Thank you for your attention.

When playing duplicate, since the scoring is not cumulative, a 50 point bonus is added for making a partscore, and a game bonus (300 nv, 500 v) is also counted immediately; the only other difference is that there are no points for honors.

 

Yes, the score is a duplicate score.

 

It is like scoring in rubber bridge if you had abandoned the rubber after playing just one hand.
