Bidding can take a very long time, especially when there is a noticeable difference in strength between the combinations. It would be a great improvement for the bidding format if players were asked to input their maximum bids instead. That way you could simulate the entire bidding process automatically after that step is complete for all players.
If player 1 thinks combination A is worth 16 over combination B, and player 2 thinks it is worth 18. Then player 2 would get combination A for 17 coins (or 16 depending on who was designated as first bidder) but the players would only have to supply the interface with one bidding interaction instead of 16+ individual ones.
