Archive of all the tournaments played on LoveBridge, where players can access the result and play of each board, including the biddings and plays of other tables. For the TDs everything can be seen with an accuracy to seconds: no debate about Break In Tempo, no debate about slow play.

Viewers can see the real-time result of each board, and the standings all through the tournament with the exact result. It is easy to find all of our archived broadcasts from previous tournaments, in case some of our viewers missed the live broadcast or some of our players would like to review their performance. Viewers have more insight to the forming of the result: they can follow the play at every table, and see every card played during the whole tournament. Comments at a table and voice commentary are also possible to make the viewer experience even better. (Broadcast can be delayed for safety reasons upon request.) Since everything is automated, there is no need for a human interface during broadcasting, therefore there are no errors. Spectators can be sure that what they see is exactly what is happening at the tables. IMMEDIATE RESULTS

For the TDs everything can be seen with an accuracy to seconds: no debate about Break In Tempo, no debate about slow play. No need for additional scoring devices Organizers and directors never have to deal with revokes, bad seating, insufficient bids, opening lead from the wrong side and similar mistakes again. Every board and deal is visible on the tablets and on the vugraph site, there is no need to print the deals, results and personal scores. Organizers don’t have to prepare the deals and move the boards, never have to replace the cards and bidding boxes and take care of every tool necessary for the players. They just have to set the system up, and it can replace countless tools that were necessary to organize bridge tournaments before. TIME
