Hello all - sorry for basic level of this question but new to BBO ... A friend and I want to improve our play (specifically bidding) in a practice setting, ideally against 2 robots. Please can anyone advise how this could be set up? Is it a BBO$ thing only?
thanks in advance

If you go to the Practice area and start a Bidding table, then you and your partner can sit North-South and place robots in the East-West seats. This is bidding, no play, but the robots are free for this purpose.

If you go to the Casual area and start a table, then you can place robots as your opponents. Robots have to be rented with BB$ for this purpose.

The basic robot is BB$1 per week. The advanced robot is $1 per day.

You only pay once even if you put robots into two seats.
