Entering New Deals
The core value of Deep Finesse is its ability to correctly analyze any deal you give it or that it randomly deals itself. You can enter a specific deal for analysis at any time by selecting Enter New Deal from the File Menu. Choose Enter Partial Deal instead to enter a partial deal or end position for Deep Finesse to analyze. Don't believe the analysis of a hand in a book you are reading? Still worried about that really tough deal at the club last week? Enter it into Deep Finesse and find the truth.
All cards start out in the middle of the screen when entering a new deal. Deep Finesse guides you through the deal entry process with prompts. You just click on cards to place them in the correct hands. The final 13 cards are moved to the last hand for you.
You can correct a mistake at any time by clicking on an errant card to return it to the pool of undealt cards. Then click on the correct card to replace the mistaken one and continue forward. Just follow the prompts. If you notice a mistake after you have entered the full deal, choose Modify Deal from the Modify Menu to fix it.
Instead of entering hands manually, you can ask Deep Finesse to randomly deal and analyze a new hand. Choose Random Deal from the File menu. Deep Finesse deals cards, chooses a contract that looks reasonable, and starts analyzing. All possible leads are considered. You can try different contracts for the same deal by selecting Modify Contract from the File Menu.
