Although it is a dumb strategy, apparently teams have decided in some cases that denying a perceived better team a coop bridge balance is a strategy. We spent about 45 seconds in a couple of matches holding a bridge for the coop partner who never showed up. So we did not get many coop bridge balances although we are able to do most of the work to get someone else on there with us. It is hard to cooperate alone.
