Cuebids app analytics for August 31

Practice bridge bidding with the partner you actually play with, on your own schedule. Pick the auction you want to rehearse, bid it, and get instant feedback on the contract you reached. Bidding is the half of bridge you cannot rehearse alone. The auctions that cause trouble are rare — you meet one at the club, get it wrong, and it does not come round again for months. Cuebids gives you the same decision as many times as you need it. WHY BRIDGE PLAYERS USE IT You are never both online at once. The auction waits for whoever is next to call and notifies them when it is their turn, so a session can take ten minutes or a week. Nobody has to book an evening. Practice exactly what you want. Pick a deal type and every hand in the session produces that situation. A session on slam bidding is slam decisions the whole way down, not one slam in twelve random deals. Instant feedback. Each board is simulated many times to find the best result available, then the contract you reached is scored against it from zero to three stars. Find your weaknesses. Leak Finder reports on the areas you can improve with a given partner — slams, games, competitive auctions, opening shapes — so you practice the leak instead of guessing at it. Compare with the professionals. Everyone bids the same deals in the Daily and Weekly, so the comparison is like for like. Professional players carry a PRO badge, and on any board you can see what they bid on the hand you got wrong. Follow the ones you want to learn from. Competitions, if you want them. Daily and Weekly events, challenges against friends, ranked challenges, and a leaderboard you can narrow to Friends or Pros. PLAY THE SYSTEM YOU ACTUALLY PLAY Cuebids does not make you pick from a list. With your own partner you bid whatever the two of you have agreed — your system, your conventions, the notes on the back of your card. Nothing is enforced. 2 over 1, Standard American, Acol, Precision Club, Polish Club, Blue Team Club, Swedish and French standard, Forum D, Kaplan-Sheinwold, Carrot Club, Fantunes, Moscito, or whatever else you have agreed. NO PARTNER AVAILABLE? A robot partner can take the seat. It is the one place there is a list, because it has to know what your bids mean: 2 over 1, Advanced 2 over 1, Standard American, Acol, French standard, Swedish expert, Basic Swedish, both of Gavin Wolpert's master series, or a convention card you build yourself. A partner who never forgets an agreement is the one to rehearse an agreement with. Advanced robots can also sit East-West, so you can practice auctions where the opponents interfere. WHAT THE PROFESSIONALS SAY "The perfect tool to practice bidding methods until they become second nature." — Gavin Wolpert, pro and coach "Great hands, an intuitive interface, and a fun competitive edge." — Sjoert Brink, World Champion "I use Cuebids every day. Essential for both pros and beginners." — Ola Rimstedt, World Champion WHAT IT COSTS Cuebids is free. You and your partner can bid together for as long as you like, on as many boards as you like. It is not a trial and there is no board limit. Tickets cover the two things that are more than just the two of you: a robot in a seat, and competition. A free account gets 48 a month, and your first sessions with a robot partner are free. A subscription is optional. It adds deal types, custom scenarios, private groups, four-player mode and a deeper Leak Finder. The top tier covers your partner as well as you, so one subscription can carry a partnership. WHAT THIS IS NOT Cuebids is a bidding trainer, so there is no card play. If what you want to improve is your dummy play, this is the wrong tool. A robot partner is not a real partner either: it bids its convention card exactly, every time, where a human hesitates and misremembers. Sign in with Google, Apple, or your ACBL account. The same account works on iPhone, Android and in a browser at cuebids.com.
