| CLICK HERE TO LEARN ABOUT REALBRIDGE |
 RealBridge is similar to BBO with the addition of voice and video. Think of it as Zoom with a card table. It is gaining in popularity with many clubs and open events migrating in whole or in part to RealBridge. Marley Grange have no plan to start a migration. We will continue to use BBO. This guide may help if you are planning to play in other clubs and open events.

| Internet Connection and Hardware |
Internet Connection - Please check and ensure your internet connection is robust, reliable and working at the stated speed. A poor internet connection impacts not only you but all the other players in the game as well. This is due to the delay and disruption caused by slow connections and players going offline.
Your Hardware - Please ensure that when you are playing bridge online that all other activities and applications (APPS) on your device have been shutdown/closed. Please also check that your hardware is reasonably current and can cope with a 21st Century online environment.
Ask a family member or friend if you need advice.

| SLOW PLAY IMPACTS ON ENJOYMENT OF THE GAME |
 Slow play means that some players are slow. You can call the TD if you feel that your opposition are slow or are delaying completion of a board. The TD will adjust an averaged score where the replay of the board shows a different outcome was likely. You can call the TD to the table at any time during play or you can lodge an appeal after play. There is a 20 minute appeals window after play.
