June 2009 CHANGE OF CALL
I draw your attention to a change in interpretation about a change of call. It is now assumed that ‘pause for thought’ is from the moment of realisation and, when in doubt, is to be interpreted generously. So if a player puts down a bidding card, looks around the room and then notices that card, possibly because of a question or an alert, he is allowed to change it if he does so immediately from that moment of realisation so long as the call was inadvertent. However he still cannot change it if his partner has called.
