I prefer using Keyboard Entry for Bidding and Play. I also am klutzy enough that I like to use Confirm Bids and Confirm Cards. If I am bidding with Keyboard Entry I do indeed have to type an extra "RETURN" to get confirmation of my bid (similar to clicking on OK if using mouse). But for the card play part I don't seem to have any confirmation step. In other words I type "DK" and the diamond King gets played without any confirmation step. Is there some way to configure the settings so I do have a confirmation in this usage?

I'm glad that BBO does support keyboard entry. Just wish this confirmation would exist.

If you set the option 'Hand Diagram' then it will at least be less likely to select the wrong suit.
After that, you can set the option to confirm card play, although the way it is implemented is not particularly effective with a mouse.
You can also adjust the settings of your mouse in the operating system to be less jumpy.

All this is of course off topic in this thread (which received no answer).
