blackshoe Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 Unfortunately my partner has a habit of spoiling the effect by falling off his chair, laughing. :P Before I read that, I was thinking that's exactly what I would do if I heard you say that. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richlp Posted August 21, 2009 Report Share Posted August 21, 2009 I find the best approach to calling the TD is to say: "Oh, dear, I do not think that is right, perhaps we should call the Director since I am sure the rules are too complicated for me to understand." Unfortunately my partner has a habit of spoiling the effect by falling off his chair, laughing. :)Your partners are spoilsports......... My college roommate is now an ACBL National TD and if he ever used that line (believe me, he WOULD), there would be less than a two second pause before I chimed in with something like "I agree completely. Let's get the director" or, more likely, "That's surprising considering how many director calls there are at your table" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
