[blml] Your call

[Tim West-Meads]

There are basically two distinct types of IB.

The more common (IME) is where IBer *intends* a sufficient call but pulls 
the wrong card from the bidding box (or says the wrong thing).
This type of IB conveys no information about IBers hand and there is no 
UI AFAICT.

The second type of IB is the "mis-seen (mis-heard)" auction call.  In 
many cases the reaction of IBer makes to obvious that this has occurred 
and there *is* UI to consider.

I am guided by the use of the phrase "Apparnetly thought the bid was 
1S." in the original write-up to say that this case was of the latter 
type.  However, I'm in agreement with those who adjust to 5H on the 
grounds that this hand is worth a slam-try not a slam-force.

NB, as TDs we are quite capable of ruling against offender when our 
judgement is "2H corrected to 3H describes the hand perfectly" even in 
the absence of an observed reaction to the IB.
