I have been playing for the rated badges double browsing on two computers. A good tip is to change partners as your opposition goes down in rank and your partner goes up. Try to play with the lowest ranked player particularily as you get higher up the ranks. It is very time consuming.

Thank you so much for your reply.
I do know how to play pinchole, and have had my rating up but got knocked back down as I know happens to all of us or I should say could happen to all of us.
My question was how do you play it with 4 on one computer. I understand double browsing and I do have dummy accounts, is there a way to have 4 browers on one computer, or how is it done on one computer?
Thank you again for your reply I do appreciate it.

The best and fastest way is for you to run 4 browsers, whether that be 4 on one computer or two on two computers is up to you and your finances. I ran 4 on three computers but that was long ago.
It really helps to have a knack for the numbers to make it fast. If you have trouble making change it will take you a long time. :/// :/// It also helps to understand the game of pinochle, nothing worse than helping someone make ratings in a game, when they don't have a clue about how to play.
For you to make ratings, you should have a partner with a low rate, that will make your average rate lower and you will get more points for your wins. Starting at 1500 or so, start a couple stooge accounts that you and your dummy partner will beat to rack up a lot of rating points. That's fine till around 1700, then if you haven't started playing against your formar partner you will have to start. I used a total of 8 accounts. At some point, you get to where you need to beat someone with a high rating. Start those accounts and work two of them to 1700 or so, then set about beating them with your account, use a partner that has the lowest rating you can find.
By playing all four hands you can quickly see the contract that needs to be made for you to win, sometimes the best contract is for the stooges to overbid and lose. If two or three people are helping you you will have to chat to figure that out and it takes a lot longer.
