Folks
Here is one of the best bridge items I have come across recently.
A free bridge program that plays pretty decently. Wbridge5.
There is also a free daily tournament which folk like BJ OBrien and Eamon Galligan and the well known Army Bridge player Commandant Wallace take part in daily. Bjoboru eamongall and billpat patbill (Billy Ronan and Pat Cassidy) I don't know the account of Mr Wallace maybe it is bmw maybe it is Elvis as in the king is alive. Thats what you say when you score a singleton King. I once attempted to score a singleton King in 3NT by leading my singleton small from dummy for my 9th trick... did not work. 3NT minus 1 was a fine score but after losing 6 club tricks 3NT-3 was not.
I highlight mpb above as an example. mpb is a club player in Malahide who wished to improve his bridge a little so I went around to his house and set up Wbridge5 and told him he can play 0 to 16 hands a day in this tournament and do his own improvement. For the first week or so he struggled in the low 40s but a year later he seems to be averaging around the 52% mark. This is a large improvement in one year.
16 boards is more than enough for most people but if one wants more one can play the free program with random or selected boards as much as they want. My point to mpb was here are 480 boards a month and thats like 20 bridge sessions extra for you.
Recent recruits to Wbridge5 are Senior Ireland player Eddie Fitzgerald and Camrose Northern Ireland player Paul Tranmer. If its good enough for BJ Eddie and Paul then its good enough for everybody who wishes to play a little computer bridge. Probably works on Ipad and mobile phone also if you travelling on the train or bus or even car.
