Hello again, all... I have finally had a chance to re-subscribe to BLML after a long hiatus.
I return with a question which I am sure has come up some time in the past, but I cannot remember the answer to it.
Suppose the auction begins like this. North deals:
Pass, Pass, Double, Redouble. Director!
Obviously, Double and Redouble are cancelled, and South must make a legal call after Pass-Pass.
Obviously, Law 36 applies to the double, so there are no penalties to North-South.
The Redouble, however, has not been condoned. So... does that mean that East is barred because West made an inadmissible redouble?
Or does L36 not apply to the Redouble at all, because the redouble did not violate any provision of L19B (the preceding call was indeed a double by an opponent)?
