When I play the FDT my results are compared to those of my friends. However when I compare the hands I seem to be playing completely different boards to them? How do you explain this?

Only a small number of players play the same hands. Otherwise it would be very easy to collude.

What is the point of comparing the results of different boards?

What a pity. Peter Hollands gives such a lovely commentary on the Wednesday FDT, however we cant pre-play the tourney to compare our results with the same boards afterward.

Surely we should come to terms with collusion, this is a pleasure tourney and purely for fun, if people want to cheat....who cares? Its only their loss really. How much fun is bridge if one cheating? I'd prefer to compare my results with friends who would not even bother about colluding.

I would guess that everyone cares.
