Me versus a top bridge player Michael Whibley - 23rd May 2024

#1 - Flat
#2 - I bid 3H over the XX as I'm not interesting in defending 2NXX. They compete to 4D-2.
#3 - You're out for -1 as long as you don't do what the expert did - cross to dummy and D and take S hook. I think that's highly antipercentage.
#4 - Flat
#5 - Same auction as you, don't think it's right to pass out 2H

DWWDW (I beat Steve lol)

These programmed robots make some bizarre bids. I was playing in BBO the other day and the parftner bid me up to 6 spades,with ace and king missing and only 3 points.

Yet another example of this guy how NOT to play this game-and he is a THEACHER???

Also if your interested in what others did you can go to other results, friends and see what they did 😅

PS for navigation close the individual hand review with the X in the top right hand corner, it takes you back to the scorecard

B1 - Flat
B2 - Highlights so many serious issues with Lia. Honestly some of the most abysmal bridge I’ve ever seen by robots. My auction matched yours until 3Sx which I removed to 4H that got doubled and RHO bid 4NT passed out. All three lias at the table bid like they had three more aces in their hands than they did. The 3S bid with 1624 shape is utterly indefensible. 4NT is dead on a small heart lead and I removed to 4H so it’s automatic IMO, but no Lia leads it’s singleton spade. More madness. 4NT made as a result but it was still a win as it’s cheaper than 4Hx-2. Unbelievable
B3 - more abysmal bidding. 4S over 4C?????? Action should be to dbl and remove diamond bids. Won the board as expert went 2 off??
B4 - Traditional style here the 3H raise is 15+ but auction description was still non specific ???? As I thought P could have a perfect hand still I made a slam try 4C bid to investigate a bit before signing of in 4H. Big mistake as Lia then goes OTT and forces to the doomed 6C. What’s wrong with 4D cue? 4NT RKCB is a thugs bidding tool for minor suit slams. Lost board
B5 - more awful bidding by Lia. Same as you until 2NT scrambling which I doubled to tell p I’m strong. Lia passed it out!!!! I took it 3 off for 500.
Honestly this is becoming totally random nonsense
