Since Covid 19,I play bridge on BBO at least 2 hrs a day and often times 4 hrs a day.
I don't mind playing with advanced at all and enjoy the challenge
BUT,
when a world champion or an expert or pro, can play with you 3 or 6 of the tournament games, you don't have a chance. They take the bids away or do other things that I do not know how to handle.
Could we please be grouped or stratified so this doesn't happen?
I have won in A,B & C but not if you run into the description above.
Plz consider this.

The champion is in A, so you don't have to beat them to win B or C. That's the point of stratification.

But does anyone like it? Some people want a good game, other people want to play at a comfortable level where they have a chance to *actually* win. Is there any satisfaction in “winning” a B or C stratum? It seems completely pointless.

The original post said "could we please be grouped or stratified?" We are stratified.
Many ACBL virtual clubs also run games that are limited to players under a certain level of masterpoints.
