Bridge Baron Companion
Bridge Baron is one of the oldest and most popular computer bridge games and
it is also one of the easiest to use. However, ease of use can be a dual-edged sword
and often prevents users from seeing all of the features that Bridge Baron has to offer.
This book attempts to lift that veil and demonstrate how Bridge Baron can be used by both
beginning and advanced players not only to play bridge, but also to learn the game, study
the game, practice with partners, compete in tournaments, and more. Every feature and option
in the Bridge Baron is covered explicitly. If you are new to Bridge Baron, this book will help
you get up and running quickly; if you are a long-time user, this book will point you to parts
of the program you may not have previously explored and help you to use Bridge Baron to improve
your bridge game.
"The Bridge Baron Companion" also includes notes on Bridge Baron's various bidding systems
and a detailed explanation of every convention that Bridge Baron plays and how the Bridge
Baron plays it.

LPBC is a massive expansion of the Learn Conventions feature in Bridge Baron. Here are some of the differences between LPBC and Bridge Baron’s Learn Conventions feature:
Learn Conventions allows you to practice each convention in Bridge Baron. LPBC teaches you six conventions in depth using the interactive Bridge Baron Teacher architecture, and allows you to practice these conventions as well.
LPBC teaches you and allows you to practice responses and rebids for conventions, while Learn Conventions does not offer practice of responses and rebids for conventions.
In LPBC, if you make an incorrect bid, the program usually explains to you what is wrong with that specific bid. In Learn Conventions, the program does not explain to you why a specific bid is incorrect.
LPBC has an improved user interface.
