Does anyone have the secret of how to learn the "thoght" processes of the Robots.
I frequently play these ACBL tourneys and on many hands, these robots respond by putting me in unmakeable slams, wrong suits, very weird plays when they are declaring or defending, etc.

Thanks, "Zeit"

.... but at least you know that you are on a level playing field :)

All the other Souths holding the same cards as you will also have 3 opponents at their tables, bidding and playing with exactly the same inscrutable logic circuits, so you are not at a disadvantage, and the random element is removed to a large extent

Try to remember that your real opponents are all the other humans at the other tables. What are they likely to bid/lead with your hand?

I know that one blogger posted some thoughts - start here: Link
Still decidedly intermediate - don't take my guesses as authoritative.
