Where can I find info about BZ


Recommended Posts

BW has several threads about past and ongoing BZ investigations. It is hard to follow them, when they are sprinkled all over. Does anyone know the right thread to follow? And if Kit Woolsey is going to write something about it, I would like to know asap.

 

Kit already wrote about them.

The video was quite revealing. If things are as they look like, heads are going fall soon. 11000+ viewers means that every bridge player has watched it, someone from WBF should look it also and do something. I can't believe BZ got away once, incomprehensible! Honestly, there has to be profound changes how bridge playing is arranged.

Prepare for your mind to be blown

 

The scratches to indicate honours look incredibly suspicious (probable understatement!), but I couldn't figure out how they indicate what suit they're talking about (the video kept saying the suit but I couldn't see a corresponding signal). Did I miss something, or are they just relying on partner to figure out which suit it is from the auction/dummy?

According to Nicolas Hammond http://bridgewinners.com/article/view/bz-signals-and-codes-explained/

Clubs: tap of right hand. Can be single or double tap. Fingers are on table. Hand is normally on table with knuckles under hand. Can be subtle movement.

 

Diamonds: tap of left hand. Can be single or double tap. Fingers are on table. For B, if his hand is close to the table edge, and he is holding his cards, this is diamonds, even if fist is rotated slightly. Hand is normally on table with knuckles under hand.

 

Hearts: tap of right fist. Fist rotated 90 degrees from the club signal. Hand is normally extended away from edge of table, knuckles pointed towards partner. Rotating the fist from flat to 90 degrees is also the signal. Sometimes making a cup shape with the fist instead of tap.

 

Spades: tap of left fist. Fist rotated 90 degrees from the diamond signal. Hand is normally extended away from edge of table, knuckles pointed towards partner. If B is holding his cards in his left hand, then a tap close to the table edge is diamonds, extending the fist away from the table edge is spades. Sometimes making a cup shape with the fist. Same signal as hearts but different hand. B normally holds his cards in his LH so can be slightly different.
