Hi all
Thx all for interesting discussion.
But there was a question that remained almost unnoticeable. It was raised by Robert Frick and answered by Swen Pran. As it was not cleared up I’d like to repeat the problem:
My LHO opened 1Heart, partner passed and RHO bid 1Heart…
The TD was summoned and he said that it was my turn to make decision: to accept or not to accept.
But it is bridge decision and I need more information before making it – for executing my rights in accordance with L10C3. This decision will depend not only on my hand and meaning of the IB. I will need to get to know possible options from L27… I am trying to resolve the problem as a player: I am not puppet to say accept or not accept without re-think the matter with all needed facts…
By the way – when dealing with (for example) L54 – declarer is usually informed about every options before he decides to accept (or not to accept) lead out of turn…
And in IB case I got the problem with same kind of difficulty. So my questions:
1. Have I (IB's LHO) rights to get to know intended meaning of IB? (OK – it is TD’s problem to keep this information 100%-secretly for IB’s partner).
2. Have I (IB's LHO) rights to get to know in advance (before making my decision) IB’s options after my decision?
For my opinion negative answers for these questions may destroy player’s rights (as IB’s LHO)…
Sincerely,
Vitold
