Hi David

This is not a real case but a question about law 25 B
Suppose it is teams and in the open room S bids 4C and changes immediately by 5C
W refuses the second declaration, but S maintains it. Now N-S lose 3 IMPS on the board
Suppose that in the closed room S bids and makes 6C. THe difference is 13 IMPS . Do we add these 13 IMPS to the 3 lost in the open room ; or is thze board limited to 3 IMPS ( in which case the irregularity of the player is beneficial for him ) ?
Thanks a lot

I will be in Menton next June, and will enjoy to meet you and have a dinner together
Kind regar

Neither.
The offending side loses 13 IMPs.
From Law 25B2(b)(2):
"The offending side may receive no score greater than average-minus."

If the actual score is worse than "average-minus" - (minus 3 IMPs in Team play - see Law 86), they get that actual score.

Sadly, the EBL has decided one English Director apart from Max Bavin is enough, and we have three international Directors, and I am not the one! :sad:

They also have no need of me otherwise either! :sad:

I had a partner but he could not wait for the EBL to make up its mind and has someone else! :sad:

It looks as though I shall not be in Menton. :sad:

By the way, I agree with Jim. :smile:
