The feeling was that having the overlay on the screen all the time kind of put a damper on the results due to the great real time scoring that was put into use this year.

They did not remove the overlay at either Regional our team attended, and I do have to agree that removing it definitely would have made some of the matches even more exciting! It's pretty easy to do the bridge balance math in your head!
It will make the decision to triple balance riskier...not knowing if you only needed to do a double to win ~ or go for a triple and risk getting nothing and losing. Interesting.
