About Daylong Reward - 8 Random Boards


Daylong Rewards are the daylong variation of our popular Robot Reward tournaments. Every player contributes an entry fee. 70% of the fees go towards the prize pool and are paid back as BB$ awards to the top scorers.


Tournament specifics

  • 8 boards
  • Total Points scoring
  • Random deals (not Best Hand)
  • 1 BB$ entry fee
  • 70% payback in prizes distributed to the top 30%.

Each table consists of a single human player, sitting South, and three robot players sitting in the other three seats.

In a daylong you can register, play at your own pace, leave the table, then resume the game later during the day without losing your results. You'll get the final results the next day in a BBO mail, and in the list of Completed tournaments.

Results
Results will be sent to your BBO Mailbox or they can be accessed in Recent Tournaments, in the History tab, once the Daylong is completed. You can also see your provisional results as soon as you finished playing your boards, and check back for updates in the list of Completed tournaments.

Human Declares
The human player is switched into the North (Robot) seat whenever North is the declarer. The human player then declares the hand. When the hand is over, the human is switched back to his original seat.

About the robots
The robots used on BBO are called GIB (Ginsberg's Intelligent Bridgeplayer). You can find out more about GIB's bidding system by clicking here.

The GIBs used in BBO play a relatively simple and natural 2/1 bidding system. You can find out the meaning of any bid by clicking on that bid as it appears in the bidding diagram. Furthermore, when it is your turn to bid, moving your mouse over the buttons for the various possible bids will cause an explanation of the bid you are considering (as your GIB partner will understand it) to be displayed. These explanations can be somewhat cryptic, but reading them carefully before you bid will help you to avoid misunderstandings with your GIB partner.

About BB$
