The Wednesday Morning Tournament

[@ellenmadsen7308]

Both the thumbs up and the comments drive the KZbin algorithm that directs new viewers to this site. Very important in that the more people who subscribe, the more ad revenue Gavin and Rob get.

Thanks Ellen.

I was playing the weekly free instant tournament on the bus this morning and about halfway through I started recognising the hands...turned out they were all from this tournament!

[@bridgelesson]

Yes we realized that through one of the earlier comments. We had no idea this could happen but wish we could have let people know.

[@TeaTiger]

Keep it coming guys! Thanks!

[@cuebids]

Great stuff!

[@jamesrichardson8151]

Love these videos guys - I started playing bridge about 6 months ago, and while I still have lots of bad moments, I'm improving thanks to content like this. Great work 🙂

[@bridgelesson]

Thanks so much and congrats on finding this great game. Best of luck.

[@codielonsberry6915]

James, what made you start playing? Are you learning through Gavin’s and Robs websites? On your own or through a bridge club?

[@jamesrichardson8151]

@codielonsberry6915 hey, thanks for asking - I watched Ben Hur with Omar Sharif and somewhere in the back of my mind I remembered he loves bridge, so I thought I'd check it out 😃 I'm learning independently via KZbin and practicing against the robots on bridge base online. Best of luck with your bridge journey Codie 😊

@codielonsberry6915 Actually it was Laurence of Arabia 😃

The March 15 BBO weekly free tournament repeats these exact hands

[@bridgelesson]

?? March 15?

[@laurencegifford8788]

@@bridgelesson Sorry March 8

[@gavinwolpert2927]

@bridgelesson Yes this week's weekly free. Good catch Laurence. It would be cool to let everyone that played the weekly free know they could watch this episode.

[@davidduckworth9214]

You discussed a few times that some "people" are not aware that it is a "best hand tournament". Do you know if the robots are aware?

[@wolpertbridge]

I don’t think so, but I don’t know for sure.

[@lucjanjanowski5245]

Do you think it would be possible to make a video like that but with all players humans? Of course, playing just for recording.

Not live your way too early for west coast!

[@wolpertbridge]

Hard to blame you but I thought west coasters were all early risers!

[@puffinbasher]

If I put a comment here it should help your experiment with more engagement.

Let’s find out ☺️

Take the mouse away from Rob.

[@bridgelesson]

Awwwww 😢

[@wolpertbridge]

lol on that 6-5 spade fit hand I was going to faint.

[@willinnewhaven3285]

Rigth away, that bullshit "best hand" concept raises its head, bye
