## What is Big Deal Bridge?

Big Deal lets you recreate tournament hands using innovative card recognition technology. Hold each card face down over your iPhone's front-facing camera, and Big Deal directs you where to deal it.  When the play is over you compare your score to actual tournament results.

For duplicate bridge players:
* Deal actual tournament hands while keeping cards hidden from all players
* Play the same hands that championship players faced
* Compare your results against scores from national tournaments

For people who have never played bridge:
* Practice play of the hand without bidding using Big Deal's unique Instant Contract feature

For small clubs or at home:
* Deal any hand record file that uses Portable Bridge Notation (PBN)
