This application can be used to score bridgegames using Russian IMP scoring. This method uses the high cardpoints (aka HCP: Ace = 4, King = 3, Queen = 2, Jack = 1) of thepartnership to determine a score that the partnership shouldachieve (using normal bridge scoring).The next step is to take the two scores (the expected score andthe achieved score) and compare them. The difference between thesescores is used to look up the partnerships final IMP score.Example: The partnership with the winning bid has 27 points. Theexpected score is 400 (this is always the case for 27 points). Ifthe bid is 3NTX (3 No Trump Doubled) and it is made with no overtricks, the normal bridge score is 550 (3NT = 40+30+30 = 100,Doubled = 100, Game Bonus = 300, Double Insult = 50). Thus thepartnership has made 150 extra points (550[actual] - 400[expectedfor 27pts]). This 150 is used to look up the IMP score of 4.Unlike rubber bridge scoring, each hand is scored individually.More information about this style of scoring can be found here:http://www.pagat.com/boston/bridge.html#chicago%20-%20rusIt will remember any hands that have been completed and oldsessions.
