Revoke/penalty card ( 05:28:50 TueDec 10 2002 )
Club Duplicate Bridge (Hong Kong)
The following incident happened last night. Would appreciate your ruling. S is the declarer in 1NT. Halfway through playing the hand S plays C10 from his hand. W plays S2 and dummy and E both discard. S now plays H7 and at this stage W drops, by accident, a card onto the table. It is C8. W now realizes, as do the rest of the players, that he has revoked. I now have to make a ruling. I believed that the revoke had not been establised because W had not played to the next trick. Under normal circumstances the C8 would have been a minor penalty card. I stated that the revoke should be corrected and the S2 would become a major penalty card. I am not sure that this ruling is correct. Was the revoke establised and can S change his H7 after W had corrected the revoke.

Looks a perfect ruling to me. :smile:

A dropped card is not a played card. As you say, it is usually a minor penalty card, so the revoke must be corrected, the 2 becomes a major penalty card. The only slight addition is that cards by the non-offending side after the revoke may be changed, so not only may the 7 be changed, so may the discard from dummy on the previous round.
