Description from extension meta

This extension extract bridge hands from results pages and load them into Bridge Solver Online

Image from store Bridge Solver
Description from store Bridge clubs publish results on various websites, together with diagrams of the boards showing which cards were held by each of the four players. Participants have an interest in finding out how boards could have been played in order to achieve a better result. The function of the Bridge Solver Chrome extension is to extract the hand records from results pages for use by my Bridge Solver Online app, which performs analysis and enables the user to investigate the optimum line of play. Simply navigate in the browser to the page containing the hand diagrams. The extension's icon at the right of the address bar will change to a green background. Click on it to acquire the deals. Makeable contracts, and par scores are calculated automatically. User selected contracts can be played interactively, with card by card guidance. For further details see the website.

  • (2023-03-19) Fiona McErlane: Brilliant, you can see whether contracts were makeable or not, which is very useful e.g. for hands played on BBO. And you can replay the hand to pinpoint where you should have played differently, and (hopefully) learn from that to improve your declarer and defence play.

  • (2018-03-22) Giovanni: Buona estensione. Risolve facilmente e brillantemente mani di bridge. E' possibile anche importarle da file o dal web
  • (2018-01-22) Tony Kemp-Jones: Brilliant. I was tearing my hair out trying to make the number of tricks and this showed me how (an end play I would never have thought of).
  • (2017-04-21) Chris Jones: A must for every keen bridge player. Can capture hands directly from results pages on major bridge websites and then play them in double dummy mode.
  • (2017-04-21) Bridget Palle: Elegant clean display and invaluable for analysing my bridge results.

  • (2023-09-28, v:1.34) Martin Norbäck Olivers: Adding site to extension
    Hi! The Swedish bridge federation has a site where you can see your played boards in their competitions. What would it take to be able to use the bridge solver extension on this site? Example: https://www.svenskbridge.se/bk-debut/tvl/413882/bricka/alla/resultat
  • (2023-04-16, v:1.34) Thomas George: bridge solver icon greyed out
    Bridge solver was working until yesterday 4/14/2023. The icon to extract hands from BBO results is now greyed out. The extension is still installed and turned on in Google Chrome
  • (2022-11-09, v:0.93) Eliza Kaye: I am trying to use Bridge Solver
    I can't work out how to install it. I am using windows 7 (64 bit) with Chrome browser on a desktop. I don't like using my mobile phone - it is too small. I click on install and nothing happens. It state that this is supposed to be a free program, but when I go into install it only comes up on how to download drivers.

    Do you have an extn for Firefox
  • (2022-11-09, v:1.21) Freddie Wright: No recognised hand diagrams on this page.
    Sometimes, I get the error that no recognised hand diagrams are on the page for BBO, when there are. Logging out and logging back in fixes this, but I'd rather not have to go offline in the middle of a tournament and lose my current chat history. Any ideas? Thanks
  • (2022-11-09, v:1.25) Frank Paynter: Solver extension for Edge?
    John, Thanks so much for your wonderful bridge solver extension for Chrome. I'm trying out the latest Edge browser, and I saw you mentioned above that your extension will work for the Edge browser. I searched the MS add-ons site, but didn't find anything with 'bridge' or 'Goacher'. Any hints as to how I get this to run as an extension to Edge? TIA, Frank

  • (2022-11-09, v:1.26) Roger Heron: MacOS - Chrome
    Hi - I have just updated the MacOS on my MacBook Pro, and immediately I did so, the Chrome Extension ceased to function - the 'Spade' sign goes green when I select a hand in History, but no Bridge Solver window is created any more when I click the green sign.
  • (2022-11-09, v:1.30) Jack Howe: Popup from Bridge Solver
    I have been using Bridge Solver during play, and for review, for a long time. Starting today (10/4/2022), I started getting a popup each time I close a BBO hand that I viewed in Bridge Solver (opened via either History/My Table or History/Recent Hands). The popup reads... "www.bridgebase.com says Deal(s) can only be captured if all cards are visible and board displays in Hand diagram mode. Please use viewer menu button to select 'Hand Diagrams' and 'Show Played Cards'." The popup appears to be triggered by use of Bridge Solver. Questions... 1 - Where is the "viewer menu button"? In "Account/Settings/History" I see a slider for "Show played cards". In History/My Table or History/Recent Hands, I can toggle between "Hand Diagrams" and "Pictures of cards". I can also do the same toggle in the menu for the active table. I have not found a setting combination that will get rid of the popup. 2 - How do I get rid of the popup?
  • (2022-11-09, v:1.30) Grant Vance: Bridge Composer
    I have used BC to create hands for teaching, and imported PBN file hands for the same. BridgeComposer does not have a Chrome application, and it appears from the Chrome Web Store that Bridge Solver will run on Chrome. Will Solver meet my needs of creating PBN files, either by an entry screen, or by importing files, like from BBO? Grant

  • (2019-06-01, v:0.9) Bob Champion: Quit working.
    Hey, John. For two days now, whenever I load a BBO deal and click a green BS extension icon, I get the message: This site can’t be reached dds.bridgewebs.com’s server IP address could not be found. DNS_PROBE_FINISHED_NXDOMAIN I'm at [email protected]. HELP!! PS: I've removed and re-added the extension without success.
  • (2018-10-21, v:0.8) Bob Champion: Won't Load...
    As of a few days ago, BS will not load using Chrome on a Mac. I even had problems with BBO. Seems Google has tightened up its security measures. Here is the message I get: This site can’t be reached dds.bridgewebs.com took too long to respond. Try: Checking the connection Checking the proxy and the firewall ERR_TIMED_OUT
  • (2016-10-20, v:0.2) sofware issue
    How do I find "saved" hands (which I have custom input, or others downloaded from BBO)?
