Does a retracted OLOOT end the auction period? Who cares? A specific law (here 47E1) overrides any general law. "A lead or play may not be accepted by his LHO in this circumstance". So presumed declarer remains declarer since he can`t become dummy. Overly kind? The defenders are going to defend double dummy. If this is kind... If you meant kind to the defenders, well, they are the non-offending side here, having been misinformed about the lead, so why should they have a problem? > > >> David >> _______________________________________________ Blml mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rtflb.org/mailman/listinfo/blml
