Setting Up a Convention Card on BBO
If you play on BBO with a regular partner, having a card set up is convenient for you and courteous to your opponents, who can then quickly see your bidding and carding agreements. You may create different convention cards for each of your partners.
For instructions on how to set up your convention cards, click here.
You can see opponents' convention cards by clicking on the 3 blue lines in the box at the top left of the screen.
For LBC's virtual club games, the ACBL OPEN convention chart is used for Open games and those with a Masterpoint limit above 200. The ACBL BASIC+ chart is used for games with a masterpoint limit of 200 or less. See ACBL website here for details.
