The USA National Championships in Chicago are currently being broadcast on BBO Vugraph. This coverage brings the excitement of some of the most prestigious events like the Grand National Teams (GNTs) and the upcoming Spingold KO Teams directly to your screens. With detailed and insightful video chat commentary from renowned pros such as Larry Cohen, Greg Lawler, Michael Schuster, and European expert Jan van Cleef, this broadcast makes bridge more enjoyable and accessible for everyone around the world. Additional depth is provided by beloved bridge pros, including Kit Woolsey and David Burn, who share their expertise through insightful text commentary.

For event security and to maintain the authenticity of the competition, the broadcast is being transmitted with a delay. This measure enables enthusiasts to closely follow the events while still ensuring fair play.

The first day of vugraph coverage from the GNTs has already seen remarkable success, attracting thousands of spectators to the semifinal matches. The engaging GNT event will conclude this Sunday, making way for the prestigious Spingold KO Teams starting Tuesday with the Round of 64 on Vugraph.

Their significant contributions have made these championships possible, enabling bridge fans worldwide to be part of these prestigious events. We also express our appreciation to our dedicated volunteer commentators, whose knowledge, and passion greatly enrich the viewing experience.

Building on its history of continuous contributions to the world of bridge, BBO added video chat in 2021 and video commentary on vugraph in December 2022, significantly enriching the online bridge environment.
