What Should I Bid?

Enter your hand, the auction so far, system and vulnerability - the EPBot engine (the same bot behind BridgeDummy bidding practice) suggests the next call and explains it.

The engine is reliable in simple and standard auctions. In long competitive or heavily conventional sequences it can be wrong - treat the suggestion as a second opinion, not a ruling.

FAQ

How does the bid recommendation work?

The suggestion comes from the EPBot bidding engine, the same engine that powers BridgeDummy bidding practice and partnership tables. It bids your hand under the selected system and vulnerability, exactly as it would at the table.

Which bidding systems are supported?

2/1 Game Force, SAYC, Acol, Precision and Polish Club, each with its own convention card.

Can the recommendation be wrong?

Yes. The engine is strong in standard and simple auctions, but long competitive or highly conventional sequences can produce calls an expert would not choose. Treat it as a well-informed second opinion, not an oracle.
