AG : or rather, that he could have.
There are still two possibilities :
1) he didn't notice, even now, that he still holds a plum in his hand
(allowed)
2) he noticed the remaining plum, and didn't give it a damn (severe
infraction)
As usual, we don't say it's 2), but we might say it could be. WTP ?
This is no more, and no less, of an hypocrisy than any other "could
have" ruling.
This ruling is seldom made, but IMHO it might be made within the actual
laws and without shouting "cheat".
Perhaps the events at the table could make 2) more plausible (based on
questions, surprise, ...)
Best regards
Alain
