Handviewer

I was looking all the time for the best method to post bridge diagrams in a post.
After experimneting with different suggestions (see the below posts) I decided to make screen-shots of the BBO-Movie and post the images.
Now I found a new nice tool from Fred Gitelman: the BBO-handviewer and I'm excited.

To get a rough idea how this works:

Thread in BBF

I wrote a first example for the handviewer demonstrating how a automatic simple squeeze works. The only flaw is that you cannot set who is on lead in an incomplete deal. So I made East declarer to give South the first lead.



Try the NEXT PREVIOUS and REWIND Buttons to play the cards.
Try a right click in the diagramm to hide played cards.
Try a click on a players name (e.g. South) to see only this hand and dummy.

This is a complete hand I played in BBO, which demonstrates the necessity to agree a rescue sequence after 1NT X ven playing 15-17 NT.
This is copied and pasted from the .lin file BBO saved on the HD of my PC.
