On board 4 you were punished for following robot leading conventions. It is odd how the robot changes its line based on apparently insignificant differences in the cards played. If you cash AKQ clubs, N discards a diamond. If you continue with the 2 or 5D, declarer finesses, cashes AD then takes the H finesse. If instead you continue with 3D, declarer finesses, cashes one top heart and returns to dummy with AD for a heart finesse If you cash KQA and switch to 5D (which I did), declarer finesses, then cashes two top hearts. If you cash KAQ (which tgwynn did), north now discards a spade. If you continue with 3 or 2D (nobody continue 5D), declarer cashes AKH. Separately, I did pass 1H on board 2 for a poor score.
yeah i noticed that board 4 was weird when comparing with Tgwnn's video. That is unlucky about board 2 with the pass I think that is good EV the majority of the time.
Onno Eskes is the non-playing captain of the Dutch open team (or was, at least, when they won the Bermuda Bowl). Nice set m8, see you in September :)
Awesome - good to see some top caliber players playing this. Enjoy the break
On board 6, is it better to play a spade to the Jack at trick 2 ?

Robots are really basic...give advantages whole the time...
