‘Slow’ Bids, Too Much Delay Considered Unethical Play

HERE are several ex-

amples of unethical prac<

~tices in today’s deal. The first was Mr. Sharp's action after Mr, Dale opened the bidding with one spade. He squirmed and frowned over his cards for quite a long time before passing. # Now, when your right hand opponent deals and makes a startling and out of the ordinary opening—five diamonds for example—you dre entitled to take a little time to decide ‘what to do, However, there was no-reason for Mr. Sharp .to be taken off guard by the actual ‘one spade opening. Most hands

are opened with one of a suit.

He knew he had no hid and he should have passed promptly. = 2 s

AFTER HIS SLOW pass, everyone at the table knew he had a fair hand — almost enough to. enter the bidding,

vulnerable. Mr. Rank was not _

entitled to have this valuable information. Of course Mr, Masters noticed Mr. Sharp’s “invitation” to’ his partner to get into the hidding and he made that as difficult as possible by going straight to four spades. There was nothing unethical in Mr, Masters taking advantage of Mr. Sharp's hesitation—although he did so at his own peril. = n n OBVIOUSLY MR. RANK did not have nearly enough to come into the bidding at this point. However, he knew (ilJegally) that his partner had some strength and he too

—long—time—before —

passing. It would have been

highly unethical for him to bid here. In fact, taking advantage of partner's slow pass

is worse than making the slow pass. Against the final contract of four spades, Mr, Sharp led the ace of clubs. And again Mr. Rank went into a long huddle. He thought the best defense was to continue with clubs but he couldn't spare the queen as a come-on, owing to dummy’s holding in the

AFTER FINGERING first one card, then another, he finally rapped the trey on the table — with emphasis. Mr. Sharp could hardly fail to get the message and he led a second club, With fine justice, this turned out to be the lead Mr. Dale wanted. He ruffed, out thé ace of hearts and later discarded dummy’s losing diamond on his set up hearts. Thus he lost just a spade, a club and a heart.
