Our Dealing Machine

We are pleased to advise everyone that our new Dealing Machine has been delivered (7 July 2022).

 

Members now enjoy playing truly random hands, are able to see in the Results all of the cards held in each hand, and of course not having the flog of manually shuffling and preparing the hands at every session.

There is also a practice section where you can challenge yourself on bridge master, or play on a practice table.

About 24 of our members use this site, and if you know their user name, you can see when they are online and invite them to a game. You can also send messages to each other.

All games are friendly and free to play, however if you want more of a competition there are always tournaments running, many are free and some incur a charge.
