==============================================================================
This program lets you practice your bidding and opening leads.
Any conventions you want to use are allowed because you're your own
partner, as well as your own opponents. The idea behind this program
is that if you're involved with a large enough number of boards, you
hopefully won't remember all the hands of a given board, and so you
can bid each of the four hands at different times. What the program
does is let you make all the bids in all the hands, one bid at a
time, choosing which board to use at any point randomly and letting
you enter the next bid in its bidding sequence.
In this way, you get to practice bidding with 3 other players whose
bidding you understand completely and a partner whom you trust
implicitly. If you find this not to be the case, then you'll probably
have discovered ways in which you need to better understand your
bidding system or in which bidding can otherwise be improved.
