- What should TD Rule? Misinformation or Misbid or Extremely Serious Error
- It’s more than a little pathetic that we have all somehow created an environment where people don’t just say to ten-year-olds who forget transfers that they should take their bid back and bid 3S. What the hell is wrong with us?
- What should TD Rule? Misinformation or Misbid or Extremely Serious Error
- Really? I mean, surely the dogs in the street knew what South held before the opening lead. Sure he might have said something, but I can’t imagine it telling ES anything they didn’t already know. It strikes me as a simple case of rolling back to 4S and ...

- A Difficult Defence
