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 GIB (US) which won convincingly with a respectable score of 49 — in fact, no other bot beat the average human score. Jack (Netherlands) was a distant second with 42.

As usual, some of the problem conditions were unfair to the bots. On Problems 5 and 6, there was no way to convey that responder’s jump rebid was forcing (all assumed limit jump rebids and had no setting to stipulate otherwise). Even though pass was implausible in either case, the different interpretation surely affected the choice of bids. Even so, this misinterpretation was uniform across the bot pack, so the relative rankings are fair.

The bots were well-behaved this month. The only errant call came from Bridge Baron, which passed 4 S on Problem 2 (the hand with 0=7=4=2 shape) — obviously a programming glitch (or database bug) that no doubt will be fixed. Surely, pass is not an option for any bridge player, when a grand slam could be laydown.

On Problem 4, responding to partner’s weak two-bid with 22 HCP was interesting, and I was curious how many bots would start as designated with 2 NT (forcing). Surprise! Only Jack, Q-plus Bridge and Micro Bridge bid 2 NT. Three others signed off in 4 H — maybe they knew something about partner’s weak two-bids — one jumped directly to 6 H and one passed. I won’t reveal which bot bid what, but HAL was the one that passed claiming that, “West will balance and go for a number.” I found this hard to believe until I realized that West, of course, was another HAL. They know their kind!
