Down in Leixlip I was called to a table by a well known MLR luminarie. He had found board 17 was misboarded and was on the case of establishing a 60% score for himself and his opponents.
It would be the best thing for every one concerned and would I be able to penalize those two pairs there and over there as they had the boards last and they misboarded it and I am not able to play it
and its not right etc etc etc ...
I said ok .. 60%-60% to ye ...but I cannot be certain who misboarded or did ye turn the board the wrong way etc ...
Luminary pipes up that the previous table did it and blah blah blah ..
I got the bridgemate and went to enter the adjusted score and I find a score is already entered ..
Back I go and I show luninary the corrected board and he says .." Yes we played this and the contract was 4S and this was my hand and I opened this and partner bid this and I leapt to 4S
and I played it great and I got 85%.
Grand says I ...so then you misboarded it ....as this they board you want 60% on and all the other
pairs penalized ..
Luminaries lights went out ..
