[Ken Richardson]

(2007 Laws) Law 7 C should thwart this little manoeuvre.

Cheers, Ken

    This does not defend against the Turner Coup (named after the former
    director of the CIA who was a keen bridge player), where one of the team
    getting a
    bad result uses sleight of hand to rotate the wallet by 90 degrees when
    putting
    back his cards before the three other hands are replaced in room 1. The
    director assumes when he gets a result in room 2 that it must have been
    misboarded by both pairs on the second occasion!

  Ah, I stand by my statement in my last post that wallents can be
confusing! I suppose that everyone has heard of the little manoeuvre whereby
you can tell (if the second table playing the board) that the slam fails if
your opponents do not have to sort their cards?  Of course, this can always
be foiled if you count your cards in a way as to change their order.

  Cheers
