MONDAY & FRIDAY F2F BRIDGE

Visitors very welcome

Marchesi Centre Windermere in Millennium Lounge

6:45pm for 7:00pm start

Online Bridge

Playing on line bridge   (BBO)

How do I register with BBO

Go to the BBO website (www.bridgebase.com) and click on the Login/Register button, top right of the window. 

This will open another window where you need to click on ‘Register’.  This in turn opens a third window where you need to fill in your details. 

You need to choose a Username and Password and add your real name at the appropriate place. 

You can ignore the request for an ACBL Number. 

For skill level, I’m not sure it matters what you put unless you want to play outside of the closed WDBC sessions.

 

On the day

Please log in twenty minutes before the session is due to start to give everybody a chance to familiarise themselves with the process.

Click on “Competitive”.

Then click on “All tournaments” which will bring up a list of pending tournaments.

Type “Windermere” in the search box, which should take you to our competition. Click on this tournament and you will be given the option to register.

Click on this and it will ask you to enter your partner’s username.

Your partner must be logged in before you can register.  If you are the partner just log on and wait for your partners invite to come through.

It is easier to determine whether your partner is online if you have previously registered them as a “friend” on BBO. To do this click on “People” and enter their username in the “Add friend” box at the bottom. You will then be notified when this person logs in.

Once you receive confirmation that you are registered you only have to ensure that you remain logged in until the appointed start time when the tournament will start automatically and you will be taken to the first board.

Visitors  

Non club members are always very welcome to join in with our online games.  Table fee £3.00.

Importantly, in advance we need to have your & your partner's BBU User names, and EBU numbers if known, to register you on the Windermere BBO Friends list to ensure online admission into the game on the night.

Please contact Judy Fry on judyfry7@gmail.com or 07739597350  for this, or any other queries.
