Thanks. Right, either it should be at the start or A-D should first say they don't apply to all OLOOTs. Except, like I said, it doesn't come up much.

The auction was over, right? Again, no problem knowing that Law 24 applies, as we are directed there.

And I applied Law 53 too! Oops.

Prior to the thirteenth trick, any lead faced out of turn may be treated as a correct lead (but see
Law 47E1).
