- First unpleasant experience of changed 2017 Laws
- I can recall about 20 cases when I made a wrong reply on Blackwood. Different reasons: by purpose, miscounted key cards, misbid, wanted to make one bid but actually made another "due to loss of concentration regarding the intent." I cannot recall the single instance when my wrong reply was ...
- Feedback: ACBL Convention Charts
- "Psyching an Artificial opening bid" listed as "Disallowed Bidding Agreements." Because psyching by definition cannot be covered by agreement I don't think it is correct place to put it.
- Cell Phone Penalty
- Size does not matter if penalty assigned consistently.
- Should a Committee, Overturn or Uphold This Ruling? (And how would you, as a director, have ruled?)
- Hi Dan, I believe you are mistaken. Alerting and providing information in that case not only proper, but it is duty of the player according the law. All information from the correct explanation is UI to partner, it would not benefit him, because if that UI used, directors are in ...

- Reducing the Manipulation Factor in Robot Individuals
- Well, it could be good idea or bad idea, but why should anyone to try to prohibit it?
- Reducing the Manipulation Factor in Robot Individuals
- Hi Doug. Could you quote the law to confirm the following "The GiB opponents are being misinformed about what system the human is playing, which is a violation of the laws." I was under impression that opponents are entitled to know all _agreements_ only.
- We Hope You Stay Home
- Hi Jonathan, I have no doubts that if people like Peg and you saying there is a problem, the problem is real. But I cannot see that problem out of results from the latest Philadelphia regional. So, my post was to understand if I am misinterpreting the data or there ...
- We Hope You Stay Home
- Hi Peg, I just look at results the latest regional I played and do not really see _that_ kind of problem. Not sure if we were lucky here or I just missing something: I copied data with masterpoints given for first 4 places below: Sunday AX Swiss - 28 Tables: 1st ...
