How about "intermediate" robot?

Given that the basic robot makes some really dumb plays on occasions (like randomly discarding the highest instead of lowest card in some suit at the cost of a trick), and the "advanced" robot is simply too expensive for those who want to play only a few hands a day, how about an "intermediate" robot that would cost say $2/week? It could be the basic robot that simply ran more simulations, so presumably a trivial change to make. I'm guessing that the really dumb plays are the result of some unlucky set of simulations, so upping the count would generally take care of that.

But I really like the new "Viewgraph Games" ability. If I just want to play against a strong bot on my own computer, I can use Bridge Baron, whose play and bidding is very good.
