- What accomplishment earned this letter
- In the Netherlands we have 2 systems, the firstis just your Total nummer of masterpoints, in other words, how old are you, and the second is your accomplishments over the last 4 years. It counts your best 5 results of the year and halve of your next 5 results. Last ...
- Not your typical lead problem
- In other words, I would NEVER lead a Diamond from a broken holding if partner doesn’t double.
- Not your typical lead problem
- Double would ask for a diamond lead. Simple rule, you doubled a cue-bid for the lead, not knowing at that moment it would be your lead. If partner now doubles it asks for the suit you doubled.
- Do you consider this pass forcing?
- We have a pretty simple rule. “pass is only forcing if we BOTH know that we have bid game on strength”. Vulnerability has nothing to do with it.
- Slow Play, a day behind the “ Flash”
- David, this is not completely true in the USA. The rule is that if you are late in a round you have to make up the time lost within 2 rounds. That means if you couldn’t do this you used, again, to much time.

- Slow Play, a day behind the “ Flash”
- See above. To make sure, only for habitual slow play, not for someone who is a little late once every 3 sessions.
- Slow Play, a day behind the “ Flash”
- Where is the I like it a lot button???
- Slow Play, a day behind the “ Flash”
- Peter, that is insane. The rules are there to be enforced. If a director can’t do that he should be relieved of his function. He gets paid to enforce the rules. “ a well, let’s not give them a 1 trick penalty for a revoke, he might get more ...
