offers several interesting dealing options from
which to choose, including the following:
Random deals: Play hands that are
randomly generated by the computer.
Numbered deals: Choose from a series
of built-in deals, numbered from 1 to
999,999.
Edited deals: Play hands that you've

The level settings are described below. For
details on scoring, see Appendix B, at the
back of the manual.
a. Rubber Bridge
[Level Menu Items: 123456789
TP]
The Rubber Bridge Levels (Levels 1 through
9) are used in conjunction with randomly-
dealt hands. Each level is displayed as 1, 2,
etc., along with a description, such as
Rubber bridge 1.
Here, the lower the level, the more likely it is
that the North/South pair will have more
honor points than the East/West pair.
b. Team of Four (Duplicate Bridge)
[Level Menu Item: 123456789TP]
This level, the computer's default level, is
displayed as T (Team of four). In this
type of game, the same deal is played twice,
with you playing South's hand first. The
computer then plays all four hands by taking
your place, replaying the hand you've just
played, comparing the two results, and
calculating the difference in International
Match Points. Note that the dealer and
vulnerability are preset for each hand.
After selecting the Team of Four Level and
pressing ENTER, choose your dealing
method and play the hand as in Rubber
Bridge. At the end, after pressing ENTER to
see the result, press ENTER again to see the
score. At this point, pressing ENTER one
more time will cause the computer to replay
the hand, and you'll see Replaying
displayed briefly. The Pro Bridge 311 now
