| More on Car Parking |
 Our appeal to Bridge Players to PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE park between the white lines in the Club car park (even if it takes a couple of minutes more to get it right, so that more cars can be accommodated) has been largely taken on board, so please keep up the good work. Please remember that the disabled spaces are for blue badge holders only and parking in the turning area at the end of the car park and in the hatched area in front of the downstairs bar is not permitted.

| Are our computer deals fair? |
| In total there are 53,644,737,765,488,792,839,237,440,000 different bridge deals that are equally possible. The software we have purchased is cabable of generating any sequence of these deals within a particular bridge session. To ensure randomness we will be conducting tests on a regular basis to ensure that expected high card point averages and hand distributions are maintained. Please click here if you would like to see the result of the third analysis which covers 2788 boards over 85 sessions during the period from 14th November 2008 to 31st March 2009 It shows there is little variance to expected values even given the smallness of the sample in relation to total possible deals. So our computer deals are fair in terms of closeness to expected values. Players may find them different to previous hand shuffling of deals that tends to make flatter hands and even splits more likely than the true norm. |
