The nitty gritty

  • 12 boards with 2 boards per round
  • Available hourly from 7AM to 1AM US Eastern Time
  • 4.5 minutes per board
  • 30 seconds per bid or play
  • Everyone plays 2/1 GIB in tempo, no waiting for slow players
  • Robots used to temporarily replace slow players
  • Matchpoints or IMPs

Everyone plays the same system: BBO's 2/1 GIB. A default conventions card is available at each table. Chat to table is not active, and you have 30 seconds per bid or play. Players receive an alert when a few seconds remain and are temporarily replaced by a robot when the 30-second limit is over. If you get kicked out, don't panic. Log in and you'll be automatically reseated when the current board in play is over. If you wish to leave the game permanently, click Call Director, and select Withdraw.
