Any suggestions for those secret comments you add to a player's profile.
[Might be best to avoid using players' names.]

I have used these phrases so far:

"knows his onions"
"grumpy ... fun to watch"
"expert but will play with intermediates"
"very critical"
"psyches"
"overbids"
"watches cricket while playing ... gets hit for 6"
(that's equivalent to getting hit out of the ballpark)
"please, please never ask me to play with you again"

I am sure some players have notes about me such as:

"probably taught by his grandmother"
"plays plain vanilla sayc"
"bids on thin air"
"born to lose .... play this guy for money"
"will double our making contracts! ... big scores coming up!"

The BBO community would NOT want to know the comments I have for some players. :-)
