This is one of several user guides on specific topics. The directory for all user guides is here. Use the “Dealer” selector on the upper left of the web page to specify which seat is the dealer for your bridge deals. This would seem obvious and would need no further explanation were it not for the “Rotate” option. Bridge, as you probably play it, is a non-contact sport. Here in Anniston, Alabama, though, we have some local ground rules to keep our blood pumping and our spirits high. Our director puts everyone’s name into a hat (it’s a fedora—we still wear those hereabouts) and at a designated time (typically 11:47 since other things are not often scheduled at that exact time) he draws a name and shouts, “Rotate <name>!” (but, you see, he inserts the name of he/she who shall be rotated). Then everyone else converges on that person, hoists them, chair and all as though at a Jewish wedding, and we run en masse around the room, shouting “Rotate! Rotate!”
