Bb$ history in bbo app

Thu, 25 Dec 2025 06:42:27 +0000

I use bbo mobile app. Where can i see my bbdollar history?

I cannot find "the blue BB$ button at BBO's top-right corner".

Store.bridgebase.com obly shows history of payments, real dollars.

I am looking for 3 types of transactions:
1. Real money -> bbdollar.
2. Purchases in bbo, bbdollar -> tourney participation etc.
3. Winnings from bbo. Daylong etc -> bbdollar.

How do I disable filters?

Wed, 24 Dec 2025 15:10:54 +0000

I play BBO on a Windows 10 computer. After filters were introduced in October, I started experiencing constant crashes when loading the pending tournament list. This is probably related to the filters. Is it possible to disable them?

Hi all,

1Y_____1Z
3Y_____3Z shows 5 or 6?

Is there any standard?

Always shows 6? 5? upon space?

1♣______1♠
3♣______3♠ shows always 6? just 5? upon agreement?

.- 3♦ is or can be, NMF?
.- 3♥ cannot be natural. Does shows stopper or denies?

less room needs more flexibility?

1♦______1♠
3♦______3♠ 6? 5?

3♥ is NMF or stopper, or maybe denies stopper?

1♥_____1♠
3♥_____3♠ shows 5+? promise 6?

Thanks all,
Merry Christmas

Kind Regards,
Paul_S

1♣ - (4♥) - X

How do people play this double?
(I'm assuming vulnerability and form of scoring make no difference.)

Is it "transferable values" and what does that mean?
Balanced-ish with a couple of cover cards? How strong?

Is it takeout, so maybe a 4-1-4-4 7-count?

Is it a penalty suggestion, so a likely trump trick plus a bit outside?
Opener needs great shape to remove.

Given the auction and your agreements, what should opener do with

♠T6 ♥A5 ♦AQT3 ♣AQJ54 ?

Would vul and scoring affect your answer?

TIA

Alerts and announcements over 3nt level

Hi all

For ACBL land, does anyone know what I should alert or announce over 3nt during an auction?

I understand a few years ago the rules changed.

One specific auction is:

1NT=(2s)=4d(heart trf by partner)

Where has the daily ACOL tournament gone? It's missing from my list (yes, I am in the UK, with a UK IP Address)?

In hijack of another hand, Cyberyeti posted this equally interesting one.

Nowhere close to the best hand I've had opposite a strong 2♣

4♠ was solid suit

How would North have continued over 4♠ holding ♠3 ♥T ♦KQJT92 ♣A8632?

Cyberyeti, on 2025-December-21, 05:29, said:

A 2♣-3♦ start really cramps the auction, and we probably reach 7N which is likely to have good chances

We would start 2♣-2NT (minors 5-5), which still has a fair bit of room if Opener has a decent minor fit or a huge single suited major like this one. 3♠ imposes trumps and we still have full space to control-bid.

Why so many hooligans in bridge?

Mon, 22 Dec 2025 04:25:42 +0000

I first played bridge for just a few months when I was in the military, I was 19. I was introduced in this game by other high testosterone mates. As a tennis player, I found strange that (some) partners in bridge were criticizing each other for real or perceived bad play. You never, ever do this in tennis doubles. Well, I said, maybe being all very young, practically noisy kids, plus the military environment were the causes.
Decades later (which is two months ago) it came into my mind to go back to bridge by exploring online opportunities. To my dismay, I realized that back then we were actually better sports than what I see now. Bashing, bullying are very much “valued” in bridge, regardless of age, country, experience, even gender. It’s like hooligans driving half drunk in a place where traffic rules are optional.
I don’t play tennis anymore but man, what a difference between people in that sport and bridge players! Or maybe this happens only online?

4NT again..

Sun, 21 Dec 2025 18:31:50 +0000

Again Ben's 4NT quantitative response..

In my opinion Ben's response @ 4NT is a clear - "PASS".
This ambiguity with 4NT (quantitative) - 5X (RKGB response) has to be corrected!!!
Fortunately there was no queen in Ben's hand but if it was, which queen?
