jhenrikj Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 West is dealer. South opens out of turn with 1H. West overcalls 1S. Now before the tray is passed under the screen director is called. Should this be corrected or is this a legal bidding west accepting the BOT? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For the record: The Norwegian regulation specifies that when the tray has not been passed to the other side the error shall be corrected without any consequence (i.e. in the form of rectification), a call out of turn cannot in that situation be accepted.

jhenrikj Posted May 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Wbf screen regulations is in force. They say that infringing calls shall be corrected, the question is if it still is concidered an infringing call after the 1S overcall or if the overcall has made the BOT a legal bid.

gnasher Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 Yes, it's still an illegal call - if you were allowed to accept it, that wouldn't make it a legal call; it would make it an accepted illegal call. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
