Ethical obligation - 2006/03/19 16:22
My partner, who is a club owner & director, and I had a differing philosophy about a situation that rightly occurred at a sectional pairs event.
Dummy had laid down a 4-2-4-2 distribution after my partner led. I quickly pointed out that this wasn't r.g.b. and 13 cards were expected in dummy. After the hand partner chided me for pointiung out the situation and thuoght we should leave declarer to her own devices;
maybe she wouldn't notice until too late and make a revoke.
My attitude was a) I don't want to play bridge that way, and b) surely there is some law that says we should point out such irregularities as soon as we can - and call the direcvtor, of cuorse!
I could easily justify a) on ethics alone, but cuoldn't find any supporting Law for b).
Laws experts to the rescvue please.
