The 2016 USBC will be covered on BBO Vugraph starting with the Round of 16, in which we will probably cover 2 or 3  matches. The Round of 16 will start Sunday, May 8th. From the Quarterfinals on, we will cover all of the tables in play.  To watch the Vugraph online, go to the BBO website  where you can either log on directly from your browser, go to "Vugraph" and choose which table to watch, or download the BBO software to run BBO on your computer. If you choose the latter approach, after downloading, install the software on your computer, log on, follow the directions to become a BBO member and you'll be magically transported to the Lobby of the largest bridge club in the world. Click on the button labeled VUGRAPH and you'll be able to choose which of the USBC matches you want to watch. To watch on your smartphone or tablet, click here and select the match you want to watch or install the BBO app and watch using that.

There will often be a "yellow" user on BBO called USBF. If you have general questions, please ask USBF, not one of the hard-working Vugraph Operators, who may not have time to respond to private messages. Thank you. 

Each day's schedule is the same (these are Denver times; to see the times for your time-zone, go to the BBO Vugraph schedule site)

10:00-12:10
12:25-2:35
3:45-5:55
6:10-8:20

During the Quarterfinals, Semifinals and Finals, all of the teams will play the same boards.

During the Round of 16, each team will play a different set of boards.

There will be live video of 2-4 tables each session. Video from the other tables will be uploaded to YouTube as soon as we can manage.

After a session, you can review the Vugraph action on our Web Vugraphs, which show each hand played with a link to bidding and play records. Take a look at the older events currently available (under Archived Results) to see what we'll have for the 2016 USBC. Web Vugraphs are posted about half an hour after completion of the Vugraph show.

You can find the hand records for USBC matches on this site, linked to the scorecards you can get to by clicking on 2016USBC under "Event Results" in the upper left of each page
