| What to Expect Online |
Play Online - Do's and Don'ts
- Make sure that you have registered at least 10 – 15 minutes before the game starts. You can sign up 2 hours before the game.
- Five minutes before the game check that your partner is online. If your partner is not online, call your partner.
- Play in a timely fashion. Most hands are allotted 7 minutes for play. Slow play is not going to improve the cards you were dealt and it may cost you a penalty.
- Alert your conventional bids. This is a big change from face-to-face play where your partner alerts your bid.
- You may congratulate your partner after the opponents have done so. You can congratulate the opponents anytime.
- Be careful what you post in the chat. The directors can see everything.
- It is perfectly acceptable to talk to your partner between rounds if there is time.
- There is nothing you can do about a mis-click (except maybe grovel profusely later, after the hand). There have been some excellent articles in recent ACBL Bridge Bulletins.
- If there is a power failure or some other problem and you leave the game, the director will substitute a player for you. As soon as you are ready you can re-enter the game.
- You must have a convention card posted. It is easy to find in your BBO account under the heading Convention Card. You may have several depending on how many partners. you play with and the different conventions you use with each partner.
