What to do if you do not receive invitation after logging on

Depending on the servers at BBO, you may or may not receive an invitation to play after logging in and after your host set a table for the North, South, East, West players.  Sometimes people will receive a playing invitation after supplying their logon id and their password.

But sometimes you will not receive an invitation until you click on "Casual" on the main screen after you log in.

Why do you need to click on the casual link?

The reason appears to be you switch from one computer server at BBO to another at BBO which allows you to see the invite.  Bryan Naab shared this explanation found on BBO by clicking here.
