No Sir. If he realizes that he has revoked on a previous trick, L72 B3
explicitly allows him to keep mum about it.
In that case, he might realize at the same time that it might be
favorable to him to revoke a second time and home declarer claims at
some time of the deal.
In that case, old L72B4 says he may not ; and L72B1 implies it, too.
Ergo, it is perfectly possible for somebody to rewoke in all good faith
and revoke a second time in no faith at all.
Best regards
Alain
