Undos in Bidding & Play - a reminder

Undos in Bidding
SBBC allows Undos for misclicks in the bidding, but not in the play.
As soon as you realise that you have misclicked you may ask for an Undo. 
The opponents will usually agree, in wh
ich case you may change your bid without penalty. 
If an opponent objects, or in case of doubt, the Director should be called immediately.
This brings us into agreement with most other Clubs

Please note that Undos are permitted only for genuine misclicks. 
You may not ask for an Undo if you realise that you made the wrong bid.

Undos are still not permitted for any misclicks during the play, irrespective of how these may occur

If you are worried that you might misclick inadvertently in bidding or in the play, you are reminded that you can use the "Confirm" bid or play facility within BBO by going to "Account/PLAYING/Confirm bids and/or Confirm cards"

Burnham Bridge Club also abides by the above policy

Players may not bring their own food to consume on the premises. 

Attending without a Partner

Players sometimes come along to face-to-face sessions without a Partner,
in the hope that someone else will be similarly placed, or that the Director will partner them.
Members may do that, but we do not guarantee a game for them.
If there is no other spare player available, the Director may play,
but strictly at their personal discretion and will not do so if it creates a difficulty with the movement.
If you decide to come along without a partner you must arrive in good time and be prepared to play
with anyone else seeking a partner.

Please note that we have a partner finding service listed on our website; Please check if this lists
another player seeking a partner for the session that you are interested in.

Register Online in Good Time

Please Login Early for Online Games

Please register for online games in good time.  Preferably 10 but at least 5 minutes before starting time is appropriate.
Last minute logins cause  difficulties for the Tournament Director and might not be accepted
