1.6 Checking Out the Results
After the last trick has been won, the result
will be shown. Note that the result displays
will be different, depending on the type of
Bridge you're playing.
a. Team of Four Results
To help you understand the results of these
games, take a look at the following
examples:
• Result: W 3
r = / EW 120
Line 1 shows declarer playing , in
a contract of 3
r , bid and made (=).
Line 2 gives East/West 120 points.
• Result: N 4
q -2 / NS 50
Line 1 shows declarer playing ,
in a contract of 4
q , bid but down 2
tricks (-2). Line 2 gives North/South 50
points.
At this point, you may press ESCAPE to
return to the Deal Menu, or press ENTER to
store the result and have the computer replay
the hand, playing all four positions.
If you press ENTER, Replaying will show
briefly, as the computer goes into Autoplay
Mode and plays the same hand again. On
completion of the last trick, you'll be
prompted to press ENTER. The results will
then be shown, as in the first game. This
time, though, Line 2 also displays the
International Match Points (e.g., N 3
e +2, and then IMP: 0).
Press ENTER once more to display the next
set of results, showing the total number of
deals and the cumulative IMP for both teams
(e.g., deals 2, and then IMP: 0/14).
Finally, press ENTER to return to the Deal
Menu.

as in AL:0 BL:80.
At this point, you may press ESCAPE to
return to the Deal Menu, or press ENTER
repeatedly to display and store a variety of

may reset for a new hand by pressing
ESCAPE. The Deal Menu will come up,
signifying that the computer is ready for
another hand, using the currently set level
and options.
Caution: Be sure not to press ESCAPE
inadvertently, as your current game will be
cleared from the computer's memory!

and many of the sub-options, be sure to take
