Hi all !!!

Here is an option I think would be neat (if not already possible !! :) ).

In the kibitzing options in one's profiles there are:

- kibitzing North
- kibitzing South
- kibitzing East
- kibitzing West
- kib partner when dummy.


Now, I often kibitz the "stars" on BBO, to try to see how they play dummy.
What I do is that when declarer is east, I have to change my profile setting to "kibitz east", to try to guess the play whith defender's cards hidden.

Then tyhe next hand , North becomes declarer; so I have to change the setting to "kibitzing North". Then the next hand West is declarer..... and so on.

It would be really neat if there was an option like "kibitzing declarer", regardless of NSEW, so that I can always have defender's cards covered, without having to manually change my profile setting at each deal.

Thanks !! :-)

but how would you know who will become the declarer?

So that means you will not see all the hands during the auction and until the opening leader leads his 1st card, you won't see any hand.

Is that exactly what you want?

I do not really care whether during bidding all cards are hidden or all are shown.
I'd just not watch the auction.

My wish is to kibitz declarer during CARD PLAY, whoever becomes declarer, with the defender's cards covered. :-)
