Click on the icon with a spade symbol at the far right of the editor toolbar. It pops up a tool for creating a hand diagram.

Try it. You don't get a random hand dealt for you, you have to place the cards there yourself. If you can see the hand somewhere, just copy it one card at a time.

Well he can avoid that effort, as he seems to realise.
If lazy post a URL of the hand he can see somewhere, if not then export the handviewer string and edit it to appear directly in a post.
I don't have time to detail how to do the latter right now but it is fairly obvious if you edit a post that already contains a hand diagram, also explained in some sticky post somewhere.

Playing a tournament and wrong bid goes in which is obviously wrong and no way to recall so just messes up the whole night. Also I have noticed that most of the hands offered up are very distributional, more than would be expected from random deals, and so the whole night is spent bidding knowing the hands are like this.

Now the robot makes a bid I dont want and that messes up the next hand so just cancelled the tournament. Also no use playing without 4 people you know because with pairs people come and go and there are long pauses during the play and you have no idea why.

This topic has been discussed numerous times in the past

1. With the exception of "best hand" tournaments, the is no evidence that BBO's hand dealer is deviating from expected (unbiased) behaviour

2. If the hands are feeling more distributional than normal to you, this probably means that where you normally play is doing a poor job and hand dealing and, as a result, the hands are artificially flat.
