We have rolled out Virtual Club Games at the Vanderbilt Bridge Club in Nashville, TN. An individual can go the the bridgebase.com/myhands site and see the hands that were played. These hands appear to be protected because when I as the webmaster try to view the hands, they are not visible. I see a note at the bottom of the screen stating "Some tourneys not shown for security reasons". Before COVID-19, members could review their hands on our website shortly after game time. If they were Common Game Hands, there might be a short delay to prevent other clubs from seeing the results. Is anything being done to improve the accessibility of hands after Virtual Club games?

I should also mention that the results are posted on the ACBL Live website, but the hand records are not. It is ironic that we can now capture every bid and card played but cannot make it readily available to the public.

Thanks for your support in these crazy times! I am a huge fan of BBO!

ACBL asked us not to make virtual club hands publicly visible on our myhands website.

So complain to them.

I'm not sure why you can't see the hand records on Live for Clubs -- we send the hands to them.

It does seem to take about an hour for a morning or afternoon game to be posted at ACBL Live. Sure would be nice if ACBL was able to post the deals. Maybe they cannot translate the BBO format to PBN...

We send the game data to ACBL once an hour, and only send games that have been finished for at least 30 minutes, because there's a 20-minute correction period after the games. So it can potentially take up to 90 minutes for the games to make it to ACBL Live for Clubs.
