COVID-19: Let’s Keep Playing Bridge Together

Bridge friends, 

Given the current context, we wanted to assure you of the commitment of the entire BBO team to maintain optimal game quality within your application.

We are lucky to be able to work from home, which allows us to protect each member of the team, while allowing you to practice your favorite hobby. BBO is and will therefore remain accessible 24/7.

Our teams are all mobilized so that you can play in the best conditions despite the influx of new players. 

However, should you encounter any disruptions, we apologize in advance for any inconvenience caused.

Please be assured that we are always available to help you, either directly from the BBO chat (contact Bbo_help) or by email to support@bridgebase.com.

Many of you are asking for help and joining us during this difficult time and it goes straight to our heart. We are happy to provide you a solution to play your favorite game in this pandemia-context. We would like to take this opportunity to remind you that many game modes allow you to continue playing bridge and improve your game. Also, the chat feature allows you to keep in touch with your loved ones and meet new people from the comfort of your couch!

The whole BBO team, from all over the world, remains at your disposal to get you through this moment in the best possible conditions, thanks to this wonderful game, the bridge.

Take care of yourself and your loved ones (from a distance 😉 ) and if BBO can bring you a little piece of sunshine during this complicated period, we are more than delighted.

Long live bridge!

BBO Team

    I was told to leave the table on the first hand of Wednesday Noon individual game. I don’t know why this happened as I was waiting for my RHO to bid and called the director. Perhaps it was a computer glitch but I would like to know.

    New to site. How can I and three buddies (located in different places) use this site to facilitate keeping our Thursday night bridge going during the current health emergency. Thanks.

    1. Amidamin

      Read the detailed informations given on BBO’s front page (BEFORE you “connect to BBO”)

      1. Dougka

        Join and follow each other and you can create a table and invite your friends to join. Set table so that they have to be invited Have to be approved to join the table

    Hi I’m new to BBO and delighted to find it. I’d like to be able to play with friends but it’s quite hard to work out how to do it eg what options to set up, etc. Is there a you tube video which shows newbies like me how to do the initial set up and to get started on our first game? Thanks!

  39. Marcia 2020

    Thank for the info! I’m having trouble giving you guys $$$! Help! Is there is phone # I can use?

    Nice to maintain quality but you just increased once again the fees for various tournaments at a time where some people will probably be at Home with decreased revenue.

    1. Amidamin

      BBO increased their servers’ capacity to allow more players to connect here. This probably cost some money…

    I have been regularly playing on BBO for last few years

    Thoroughly enjoy and am truly grateful for this chance to play the game as cleverly as feasible

    Normally I play at my club or in tournaments

    Right now this has become a great boon for a senior citizen like me

    My heartfelt thanks .
