I think the Best Hand $ tournaments are a great idea, and could be promoted on the BBO Ad network (bridge players are unlikely to click on free smileys, but whatever makes somebody happy ).

Imagine playing regular bridge, and having a bunch of 0-10 flat hands, and then an Ad appears:

- win $
- always have the best hand at the table
- low entry fees

Now that's an option for paying for a little more playing fun!

How about:
- always have the best hand, AND
- if your side plays the contract, you play it (or does this already take place?)

No we don't yet have a game where the human always plays as declarer for his/her side. But I enjoy watching Gib as declarer and sometimes am amazed at plays I would never try that result in our side making the contract. LOL
