Meadowlark Bridge and the Hand Librarian:-:
An invaluable teaching aid:-Meadowlark Bridge allows you to load any set of hands you have
created with the Hand Librarian for bidding and play. Meadowlark Bridge's flexible bidding
system lets you explore with your student the bidding of a hand. Show them how conventions
can alter the path of the bidding by retracting a bid, changing a convention, and letting
the computer bid again. Meadowlark Bridge gives reasons for the bids it makes and the
cards it plays.
System Requirements:-Windows Version 3.1 or Windows 95 •3.5" floppy disk drive
and mouse •4 MB of space on your hard disk •VGA Monitor •803(4)86 or
Pentium computer with 4 MB RAM and permanent swap file.
Description of conventions, bidding, and play of the hand:-Let's Play Bridge Selecting
your conventions First you choose from the numerous bidding conventions offered by
Meadowlark Bridge. You choose your own conventions and then those of your opponents. Use
the Conventions Dialog box to make your selections.Bidding the hands You play South while
bidding the hand. A question mark appears in the South column when it is your turn to bid.

completed." These messages allow you to see why Meadowlark Bridge makes its bids. For
example, when East made its 2 Heart bid the box would show "Weak Two." Play of

pressing the right mouse button you will get a recommendation for a card to play and a
reason for making that play. •a high speed of play. Many bridge programs will tip you

quickly that you know that if the program pauses to play and follows suit you know it has
at least one more card of that suit. This is not true in Meadowlark Bridge. Play is so
rapid that you cannot make such an inference based on speed of play.
