MiniBridge Playing Sessions
This is a schedule of the MiniBridge hands that you will be playing on RealBridge.
ACOL Bidding Playing Sessions
To support your NFB lessons, we have prepared practice hands for you to play on RealBridge to reinforce those lessons.
Once you have bid a hand at the table, one of our Teacher/Helpers should tell you if you made the correct bid; these commentaries provide an additional, more detailed explanation of the recommended bidding.
