I would appreciate a facility to "flag" hands of interest as they take place in a tournament.
Say I play a hand in a robot tourney where everyone and his dog would open my hand with 1NT, robots or no, and it proceeds 1N - (P) - 3N - All pass. You can make 9 tricks +/- zero (and I mean ZERO). So I wrap up 9 tricks and score 20%. Say what? 20%? What does everyone else see in the hand?
And over the course of the tourney there are a few similar instances where the result seems just unbelievable. Trouble is, I complete the tournament and eagerly await the publication of the results. But no. There are still 19 other tables in play, and at their rate they are still on board 4.
Oh, well, better play another tourney while I wait for that one to complete. Maybe an Instant, where I can at least get to see what happened elsewhere at each hand end.
Then it is time for tea. Or get back to work because it is end of lunch break. No worries, in about 4 hours time I can go back and check the hand.
Anyway, you get the drift. When I go to recent tournaments etc it would be nice If I could zero in straight away to the hands that I felt warranted particular scrutiny. I might be able to do that if, at the time of originally playing the hand, I could click on it to say "when you wake up in 6 hours and review your hand history, you might want to take a closer look at this one".
