Names with accented or non-English letters have been converted to an English representation with a 26-letter alphabet. Many people use erratic capitalization, so I determine proper case by algorithm; if this does not correctly display your name, please advise and I will add it to the exception list. If you wish to contact someone whose name you see listed (such as a lost friend) give me permission to send your address to that person, then he or she can contact you. I will not give out e-mail addresses (these are private and go nowhere from me).

Bot’s Eye View

I posed these bidding problems to some of the well-known bridge computer programs, and the results are tabulated below. (These results are not included in the “number of participants” shown above, nor in the calculation of the median or average score.) Most of the programs had different skill settings (thinking time), and this was set to the highest level.* The scores and rankings, based on six specific problems, are not necessarily indicative of each program’s overall capability.

*Not to exceed 30 seconds per bid. Thinking time is also used to break ties, with the advantage to the bot that was faster.

Congratulations to Bridge Baron, which won rather convincingly this month with a fine score of 51. The only other bot to beat the average human score was Jack with 46. The win easily keeps Bridge Baron atop the overall standings, followed by Jack in second place.

There were two errant calls* this month. On Problem 4, Bridge Buff, Micro Bridge and Jack all passed partner’s 4 D bid, which is outlandish after both players have cue-bid the enemy suit, and diamonds were never bid. I’ve noticed this to be a common glitch among computer programs; once an auction graduates beyond its fixed rules, the tendency is to pass too often. Perhaps, they need to be programmed with the familiar expert advice, “If you’re not sure what a bid means, don’t pass!” Alas, then you’ll need a way to stop the buggers from reaching 7 NT on every hand.

*For scoring purposes, unlisted choices get the same award as the worst listed choice. While some errant calls might indeed deserve zero, this wouldn’t be fair because there is no way to instruct the bots to the multiple-choice format.

The other errant call was on Problem 5, where GIB jumped all the way to 6 D. Wow. Has Ginsberg tweaked its card-play algorithms to new heights? No, I think it just thought it was playing against HAL, which has been reprogrammed in Cliche++ (similar to C++). Holding, say, S A-x-x-x H x-x-x D K-x C x-x-x-x, HAL would surely lead the D K, either to “cut down the ruffing power,” or just simply for, “when in doubt, lead trumps.” Easy slam.
