WinScore V1.2 scores your bridge single session duplicate events quickly, easily, error-free! Use it on Windows 95, 98, ME, NT 4.0, 2000 or XP. Use WinScore for single session club and local events from 2 to 24 tables and up to 48 hands.

Use Howell, Mitchell or Scrambled Mitchell movements. WinScore doesn't come with or limit you to pre-entered fixed movements. You enter the East-West pair numbers once only for each round and then WinScore will copy these across to the other hands in the round. While this does involve a little extra typing, it does give you complete flexibility of movements.

Maintain a membership list to facilitate the easy entry of pair names when scoring events. Readily accommodate visitors. Use the membership list to form the basis of Individual and Pairs ladders.

Enter as little or as much from the traveller as you wish to quickly score each hand. WinScore automatically calculates the Match points for you. For fast scoring just enter the score achieved or let WinScore check it for you using the standard 2H-1, 3N+1* notation. Override tricks and adjust scores made to penalise pairs. See detailed statistics for each hand scored. WinScore automatically ranks pairs into order and awards EBU Master points, adjusting for tied places. Master point scoring can be disabled if required. Here is the Score Hand screen where details for each hand are entered:-

Here in the United Kingdom the match points are double those for the United States. This doesn't make any difference to the results, they'll be exactly the same, it's just that the British don't score using half match points as the Americans might.

WinScore doesn't use an automatic way to assign averages or penalties. Instead you should score up the affected hand as best you can and then turn off the Auto MPs checkbox. You can then manually adjust the match points for the pairs involved.

Generate Individual and Pairs ladders over any time period based on various sorting methods. Employ a minimum cut-off level to omit infrequent players.
