The BEST Bridge Software January 21, 2010 Fancy Nancy (Darien, CT USA) 22 out of 24 found this review helpful
I have enjoyed all the various versions of Bridge Baron over the years, and it continues to be the best Bridge software on the market. I appreciate the options to learn conventions or to simply to play hands (individually prepared or from past tournaments). There are other options as well, but these are the ones I use. Bridge Baron 20 allows the player to REPLAY hands in the tournaments, too, which is a new feature -- and I love it. In addition to regular Bridge groups each week, I play in a fairly new group of players once a week, and we set up the first 12 hands using games played from Bridge Baron (print them out and set up the hands) to practice conventions and learn how to better play the cards. The only problem with this program is that it is so addicting!
Bridge Baron only gets better with each revision! April 9, 2010 Jim Belman (chandler, AZ USA) 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
I have played Bridge Baron for the past 15-yrs, upgrading to a newer revision with each purchase of a new computer. Bridge Baron 20 is totally compatible with Windows 7. It still allows the player to customize the skill level played-against, and whether the player wants to play vs the computer program, or on-line. When I lay-off playing Bridge Baron for any length of time, I find that my play in live sessions around town suffers. If a player can beat, or just stay even with the Bridge Baron program, he/she is ready to play just about anywhere!
Marlo April 14, 2010 Marlo Burg (Lincoln, NE) Bridge Baron is a great program. Well worth the money. Sometimes the "Hint" is not accurate but it is not a big problem.
Bridge Baron 20 February 1, 2010 bill cummings (Winchester, Va - USA) 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
For someone who has few acquaintences nearby who play, Bridge Baron 20 has been a godsend. I also got their basic conventions disc. Togethter they are incredibly helpful, fun, and instructive. Also, once I got familiar with what they offer it got easier and easier. One can set the level of play or lessons at whatever level is desired.
Bridge Baron 20 February 1, 2010 Bert R. Magnuson 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
This program was recommeded by an Bridge Instructor on a recent cruise. I enjoy using the program for bidding, response and playing skill improvement.
The CD came without any instructions and it has been a challenge to find my way around inside it. It has good graphics and the computer player does very well. The "hint" feature is good.
I am glad to purchased it and enjoy using it.
