Use tablets only
Transform into a digital club
Bridgemate Play also enables you to create a fully digital club without cards and bidding boxes, but with players still gathering in person. As the location of the players is irrelevant for Bridgemate Play, they can also be located at the club. Players sit with their partner and opponents at the same table and enjoy the usual table interaction, but use tablets to play the game. Of course, online players can also participate from any location elsewhere, creating
one big hybrid game.
