Appeal is part of http://web2.acbl.org/casebooks/2016Washington.pdf

The gist of the hand is that E/W made a bid (4S) that was ruled illegal
because of UI, and that N/S doubled the final contract. Some of the
commentators suggested that the double was wild or gambling so N/S should
keep their result on the hand of 4SX making exactly.

Is this the correct application of law? I thought that when adjudicating a
case like this that the gambling side was supposed to keep the part of
their result that came from the gamble, but not the entirety of the bad
result including the infraction of the other side.

As this case was from a BAM hand, this would involve looking at the
difference between comparing with the other table at +620 and at +990 where
it's possible the double actually had no effect.
