Insufficient corrected ( 14:38:15 TueJun 17 2003 )
Country: Hong Kong

East bids 3S. South bids 3C. East says 'Insufficient Bid'. South immediately changes his bid to a 'Pass'. Which law should I be looking at? Law 25 Change of Call or Law 27 Insufficient Bid.

Law 9. :biggrin: Specifically Law 9B1(a) and law 9B2. East's comment draws attention to South's irregularity (L9A1), so the director *must* be called (Law 9B1(a)), and no player should take any action until the Director does his thing (Law 9B2). Also, South's premature correction of the IB may subject him to further penalty (Law 9C). Now, south's pass is cancelled, and you deal with his insufficient bid (keeping 9C in mind).

Yerrr-s-s-s-s. While Ed is right up to a point it is a very normal reaction of players to try to correct their insufficient bids. So long as the TD is called immediately by one of the players not much harm is done.

The TD gives the next player the chance to accept the original call - not the attempted correction. If the next player does not do so the full Law is applied and the attempted correction is cancelled - but it is UI to partner.
