Some issues with logging off in the middle of a game but maybe I need a phone with more memory

Favourite game mode: ‘Challenge is great’

Bidding system used: ‘Stayman and blackwood are a must of the others Jacoby 2nt is a powerful way to start a slam inquiry’

overview.testimonial.whyfunbridge ‘Easy way to practice for club tournaments. I believe bridge is a live game for real people to get out and enjoy but Funbridge gives a platform for playing when you can't get to a club and a brilliant way to practice with your favourite oartner’

overview.testimonial.helpImprove ‘Yes you can learn to count the hand and plan the play then review the result and see what went wrong that's the good news. Bad news is the robots are what they are and the play and especially defence is nothing like real matches against real people. Often robots leads are unusual and I wonder if they know more than they should like leading a doubleton against 3nt when they hold a 5 card major. Not natural and doesn't improve your game’

Bot needs upgrade . Multiple oximorons in explanations need to be fixed. Bid shows 0 or4 kings excluding the king of trumps last I knew, deck only has 4 kings not 5. Been almost a year and no improvement oe corrections. Way too many internal rrror freezes and other delays.

Bidding system used: ‘2C Pecision open. Eats up bidding space and really clarifies posibilities for partner.’

overview.testimonial.whyfunbridge ‘Great way to pass time’

overview.testimonial.helpImprove ‘Yes for play of the hand’

10/10

I enjoy it, and like the options to see how others did, and to be able to replay.

Favourite game mode: ‘Practice hands. I am not interested in tournaments.’

Bidding system used: ‘I like to learn about all the conventions’

overview.testimonial.whyfunbridge ‘For practice and entertainment. I play, for fun, in real person bridge clubs’

overview.testimonial.helpImprove ‘It helps with bidding, because you can see how the more successful hands were bid. Learning to count trump and the other suits improves with practice. Also you learn to watch out for “transportation” when playing a contract.’

10/10

Its excellent. There is a variety of tournaments, lessons, tips its very comprehensive

Favourite game mode: ‘Not sure what you’re asking but I would say having competitions for diamonds that allow people of similar standards to compete for would be good. Its a bit demotivating if you’re a beginner or at the bottom end of the standard and you are competing against those who are consistently ace bridge players. Sometimes its good, but occasionally it would be nice to know you might win some diamonds in a tournament☺️😉’

Bidding system used: ‘I tend to go with Acol because thats what I learned with’

overview.testimonial.whyfunbridge ‘Its a great app. You can play against the computer but you get to compare your results to others. I think you might even be able to play with real people but I havent had the courage for that yet!’

overview.testimonial.helpImprove ‘Yes, the game itself. You can go back and try again, to see how to make your contract, work out your mistakes. The computer will also tell you. The bidding key also lets me know when I have been fuzzy with my bidding’

8/10

It is a good way to play Bridge online.

Favourite game mode: ‘I am playing mainly practice deals.’

Bidding system used: ‘5 card major (Beginner)’

overview.testimonial.whyfunbridge ‘Recommendation’

overview.testimonial.helpImprove ‘Difficult to say. I try yo improve but I do not think that I will become anytime a good Bridge Player. I do not always understand the bidding procedure. Sometimes any possibility of bidding seems t be wrong. Then I try the closest suggestion. Sometimes I get a good result but Fundbridge's Argine thinks I should have bid differently.’

10/10

For the most part I enjoy it. Sometimes Argine bids and plays a little different from my expectation e.g. not returning partner's lead!!! Also, I had a problem when playing ACBL Tournament, it was eventually resolved but I had a high score 58, I think when the tournament froze and I wasn't able to complete. I was neither able to complete the tournament, hoping to gain some Master points nor was I refunded the diamonds used to compete. I know things happen but it stopped me from competing in ACBL Tournaments for a couple of days.

Favourite game mode: ‘ACBL Tournaments and Championship series Like the Masterclass series’

Bidding system used: ‘Stayman, Transfers, Like to play simple conventions.’

overview.testimonial.whyfunbridge ‘Much prefer to play when I want , not having to go to a club or organise a partner.’

At times I find it difficult to understand but fortunately your staff can usually help me out and explain what I need to do. Kind regards Jack Nicholls

Favourite game mode: ‘So far I have not progressed further than just playing the Contract Bridge every day practice sessions.’

6/10

Better organization than Bridge Base Online and the ACBL, the latter of which is blatantly unfriendly to beginners. This said, it still has its weak points. The Masterclass lessons are not presented on a physical whiteboard, so players who don’t learn well with PowerPoint slides can expect their game to stagnate within weeks. The beginner lessons have the same problem and not enough interaction with the example hands. If you haven’t been able to find a teacher who will actually support how you learn, the reality is that FunBridge only partially fills the void, which gives it an automatic one-star penalty. Customer service is super patient and open to ideas, though. Can’t say that about BBO or the ACBL.

Favourite game mode: ‘Cardplay. It gives players who can’t grasp bidding concepts a chance to still play on their terms.’

Bidding system used: ‘I don’t even know what a convention is, so I can’t answer that question.’

overview.testimonial.whyfunbridge ‘It’s the only place I could find where the support team was willing to hear me out on my frustration on not finding a suitable teacher. The beginner course starts from “this is a deck of cards” and focuses on cardplay first which is how new players should be taught.’

overview.testimonial.helpImprove ‘Not like it could. The Masterclasses are impossible for me to follow because they aren’t taught on a physical whiteboard, and the teacher of the English language lessons refused to accept that she needs to adapt to people who learn differently, leading to me brutally telling her off and getting blocked by said teacher. I have no regrets because real teachers use physical whiteboards without exception.’

6/10

I don't see many ways of teaching person to person

Favourite game mode: ‘I don't know what a game mode is. Do you mean types of games like challeges, team games, etc ?’
