Has anyone run more hands? Is the dealer still at a disadvantage? How about trying different convention cards?

This seemed like a real puzzle to me and I'm interested to see if it gets sorted out.

It would be interesting to see if 1st and 3rd do better on the hands where 1st seat passes or on the hands 1st seat bids something. Now don't tell me you know the answer - we thought we knew the answer before as well.

Even better, a breakdown by the call made in first seat.

Then you get in the small number statistics again. Besides those numbers depend a lot on the system used.

I am away from home at the moment. I will try and investigate further when i get home. I might need to write some code to automate GIB. If anyone has some experience with this I would accept help. I remember I had some problems last time I tried this.

Just didn't want this post to be forgotten. It seemed like the initial results were the exact opposite of what everyone expected.
