play every evening with the robots and I love the bridge, but the robots are terrible and very undependable (like rebidding a 4-card suit as if it's 6,etc,etc.
I've never had *that* happen. But they almost always raise 5 of a minor to 6 for no reason.
I shall need a partner@
Don't worry if you can't find a partner—you can easily find one through the partnership desk when the tournaments are available on BBO.

Thx ı will join
ty for hosting the event.
Great!
Luv to join
I've noticed that BEN doesn't seem as smart as their regular robots. That would make sense because it's based on 100 million hands played by ACBL players. How many of those don't play all that well? To me the result does seem like a combination of good and bad bids and play.
Nice post. Thanks.
Thx I ll join
