I only had one law 27 ruling in Brighton. The auction was something like 1D-(P)-1H-(2C)-P-(2S)-2H.
- I suggested that 2H and a correction to 3H were probably natural [no disent];
- I gave the next player the option of accepting 2H, if not offender could bid 3H and perhaps some other calls that would not silence partner [not accepted];
- I spoke to offender away from the table: "What did you mean with 2H - had you not seen 2S?", reply: "oh yes, I had seen 2S, I have no idea what I was doing";
- Me: "Well I guess 2H showed hearts, would anything other than 3H show hearts?", reply: "Not really, I think I'll bid 3H";
- We returned to the table, offender bid 3H.
All a bit of a non-event. Throughout all of Brighton there seemed to have been insufficient insufficient bids to really test the new law.
