ONLINE BRIDGE
(Including Face-to-Face viewing and verbal chat!)
There is a new facility to play bridge online. It is at RealBridge (https://realbridge.online/)
The great advantage of RealBridge is that it is based on Zoom, and so includes the ability to see others at the table (onscreen) and to chat to them (with your voice!)
Knowle Bridge club, in consortium with Dorridge Bridge club, is offering a free weekly ‘Real Bridge’ session on Thursday evenings commencing
this Thursday (28th January) from 7 PM - 9 PM. Free of charge
You should do the ‘Real Bridge’ free 45 minute 'Taster' session first. Visit the Real Bridge website realbridge.online for details and to register
You can play on a desktop, a laptop or another device. But it is not possible to play on an early (version 1 wifi only no 3G) iPad
You should check that your computer camera and microphone satisfy the configuration requirements
‘Singles’ are welcome. A host system will be available
Contact Mike Lynn or Fran Baxter for further details or to register
Several of you are aware of other facilities at Bridgebase online (https://www.bridgebase.com/) via West Midlands Bridge Club member Darren Evetts (https://www.bridgewebs.com/wmbcircle/)
Others may play at West Midlands Bridge Club (https://www.bridgewebs.com/cgi-bin/bwoo/bw.cgi?club=westmids&pid=display_home) or Bridge Club Live (https://www.bridgeclublive.com/)
