Sorry, this user has no cards yet.
- Ruling on opening 1NT with small singleton (ACBL)
- Or it was always there. I went and looked right after I saw Matt's comment, and it was there then.
- Ruling on opening 1NT with small singleton (ACBL)
- I suppose, Ray, that it depends on what "designate" means. Wayne: you got that right!
- Director's ruling opinions?
- Do they have a card? Is the meaning on the card? Do they have two cards? Do the meanings match? I don't know why people put so much emphasis on verbal explanations. We have system cards for a reason.
- Director's ruling opinions?
- I would ask RHO for his card. Then I might call the director.
- Was this the correct ruling?
- Chuck Norris: "If I want your opinion, I'll beat it out of you." -- in "Force Of One"
- Comedy of errors: how do you straighten it out?
- The question is what does this hypothetical UI suggest? The mere existence of UI is not in itself a problem.
- Two-Way Checkback/XYZ Question
- Apparently so, Richard. :-)
- Ruling on opening 1NT with small singleton (ACBL)
- No. Just because something is on a convention chart, that doesn't make it a special partnership understanding. Unless the ACBL explicitly says so somewhere, which to my knowledge they have not.
- Director's ruling opinions?
- "I was content to call the director and just live with whatever they decided." So live with it then. :-)
- ACBL and psyching 1N. Again?
- I would ask a director who told me that last thing to put it in writing so I could present as evidence to the next director after we changed our system in ways that did not comply with this "illegal" regulation.
