ETIQUETE and TIPS
1. Always count your cards BEFORE looking at them. If you don't, and have an incorrect number, you may face a penalty.
2. You may ONLY tell your Partner if the last trick is facing the wrong direction. Calling attention or correcting any other trick is strictly PROHIBITED .
3. DO NOT call the director on yourself, even if you realized you revoked or any other reason. It’s up to the opponents to catch it.
4. Any player except Dummy must call the Director when law infractions, hesitations, rude behavior, or problems of any kind occur. Dummy may, however, call a director after the hand has been played out.
5. After a board has been played, you may not, without permission, remove someone's hand to look at it. If you have received permission, only one hand at a time may be out of the board.
6. If declarer designates a suit, but not the rank, he is deemed to have called for the lowest card of the suit indicated.
7. If declarer designates a rank but not a suit, he is deemed to be continuing the suit in which dummy won the last trick.
8. Do not ask for information unless it is your turn to bid or play.
9. A player may not refer to his/her convention card during the auction or play.
10. The opening lead should be made face down until it is accepted by partner. This prevents irregularities such as leading when it is not your turn. It also enables your partner to ask any questions about the auction or alerts that have been made.
11. Snapping cards is one of the ten greatest pet peeves of Larry Cohen and most bridge players. |
