Remarks During The Bidding

December 2007 UNAUTHORISED INFORMATION

May I remind all club members of Law 74B2 which states ‘As a matter of courtesy a player should refrain from making gratuitous comments during the auction and play.’

It is sometimes regarded as pleasant to make what can be construed as jocular remarks during the auction or play, especially when playing social bridge. If, however, it occurs during a duplicate session and the final result gives the commenting pair a good result their opponents may be seething at an unpleasant injustice. In general, it is advisable to make no comment at all.
