Installation of the
Dealing Machine at Reading

Paul Gipson recommends: There is a new version of the
SUITPLAY
program that tells you how you should have played that suit combination. It can
be downloaded from
http://www.suitplay.com/
and is available free and unlicensed for personal use. It is a MS-DOS program
and runs on Paul's Windows 98 with no problem (it is also fine on 2000's and XP's).
Paul recommends emailing Jeroen Warmerdam (as suggested on web site) as the author
will inform you about new releases.
