When you saw me say a SMALL amount, what amount came to mind?

$40/session perhaps? Like ...?

cheers

How many boards in a session? How do you plan to exchange funds? Will the $40 per session include the practice hands and bidding?

Oops.

The $40/session does not include "a SMALL" amount!

My poll-like clarification sure muddied the waters.

Let me try again.

Does $40 per hour or session sound like a SMALL amount to you?

cheers!

If I understand your question, do we think $40/hr to play a new bidding system sound like a small amount?

First, someone would have to read/study your system (I assume you are not paying for that time). I assume they do this on their own to become well versed in the method. Then, after what, a week of study at a minimum, they play it with you.

Assuming all the above is true, and assuming you are getting a top notch player (doubt with learning a new system you will), then $40/hr sounds like a very small amount to me.

If you just want someone with notes in front of them and they bid from those with no prior study, and you are not looking for top notch player, but rather a random volunteer, then 40/hr sounds like too much.

If your instructions for your bidding system are as unclear as your ad, I suspect you will have a great deal of difficulty finding anyone capable of becoming a practice partner for you at any amount of money.

Face to face, new parners needed 15-30minutes to get the system, it being all natural, etc.

Thanks for the note.

In print, more because I can't "see" what they get immediately.

Thanks for the note.
