For The Tournament Organizers

Organizing a tournament with several hundred tables is a daunting task. If 500 tables were supposed to play 30 boards simultaneously, a total of 15.000 boards and 15.000 decks of cards would be needed. A BridgeSpinner system at every table would immediately reduce that enormous number to just 1.000 decks of cards and no boards at all. This means that 93% of the playing cards can be saved in a barometer tournament. In addition, the centrally placed card dealing machines would also be saved.

Tournaments will be able to offer barometer tournaments in situations that were exhaustive or impossible previously.

These tournament-related improvements to the traditional way of playing bridge are relevant for all tournament sizes and all forms of competition, be it a club tournament or a world championship.
