This new version of DDS includes many great improvements
to the Filter feature, especially concerning Opening
Leads and DD Bidding. As always, the
Filter feature works best when you have accumulated a
large database of deals. The easiest way to get that
large database is to open multiple files into one file:
Click Open File, hold down the <Ctrl> key and
click on all the files you want to include - typically
they would be hands played by the same player.
This version has
also been translated in Bulgarian. Thank you George.
Opening
Leads
Here are some of
the ways you can filter your results based
upon the Opening Lead.

DD
Bidding
Bridge
players are aware of Double Dummy (DD) Play
analysis on a hand, and also the concept
of the "Par Result". The key point is
that DD analysis, unlike "real" bridge, makes
its calculations after looking at all 52
cards. Despite the flaws of DD bridge, many
feel that it can provide valuable insight into
improving one's game.
Double Dummy Solver has taken this idea one
step further by introducing the concept of DD
Bidding analysis. Did we overbid, miss
a sacrifice, or perhaps wrong-side a contract;
i.e. declare from the wrong side of the table.
This analysis is unaffected by the
play of the hand.
Based
upon the final contract and DD analysis, DDS
classifies the bidding on every deal into 23
different categories, shown on the right.
The DD
Bidding classification for each hand can be
seen on the Scoreboard and also in the
bottom-right corner of the main screen. More
explanations about DD Bidding can be found in
the User Guide.
Many thanks
to Bob Cohen for all his tireless help in
debugging this complicated feature.
