Strange bid in B1 of demo boards - I did not find any reason for it in the training data #103

Hi,

I looked at board 1 and I think the 1NT bid is strange - why wouldn't you pass instead? You have five pretty good clubs. So I looked into bidding_data.txt and search for "X XX P 1N" - zero hits "X XX P P" - 308 hits

Are we ignoring doubles and redoubles in the learning process? Otherwise I don't understand BENs bidding.

@ThorvaldAagaard thanks for updating the demo site.

Bidding_data.txt is old, and not used for the current models.

Most training is based on BBA https://sites.google.com/view/bbaenglish and BBA is having some difficulties handling bidding after XX

You can find the data used for training BEN with the models used to play the Camrose Deals on the demo site here: https://netbridge.dk/bridge/Upload/SAYC-Version%207918.zip
