- Advice sought on ethical question
- 2s as a transfer to diamonds would also be alertable so there's no UI unless the opponents asked and it was explained as a transfer to clubs. If there was no explanation, north has no UI and can do whatever he wants including passing any of partners bids. If ...
- Odd ruling

- The time I played in China, if I recall correctly, most of us flew out Monday morning after the nabc. We arrived in the afternoon on Tuesday, and then had one day off (opening ceremonies) and then play started on Thursday. My partner actually didn't arrive until Wednesday because ...
- Entries are open for the Michael Seamon Junior USBC
- I don't think a lot of juniors have the funds to go there much earlier and get acclimated anyway.. :P
