This week's tip comes directly from the Laws of Duplicate Bridge:

'Until a card is led to the next trick, declarer or either defender may inspect, but not expose, his own last card played.

Thereafter, until play ceases, the cards of quitted tricks may not be inspected (except at the Director's specific instruction).'

A member recently asked what she should do if she can't see all the dummy's cards.  She feared that pointing out the problem would draw attention to the suit and make her vulnerable to a lead penalty.

Our tip:  If you can't see all the cards, just make a generic statement -- somthing like 'I can't see all the cards' or 'one of dummy's card is hidden.'  If that tends to draw attention to a particular suit, so be it.  You're entitled to the information and there is never a  penalty when you ask for it.

You know, of course, that we run lots of charity games every year.  But did you know that, when we run one of those games, part of our table fees are donated to charity?  It really adds up.  We estimate that our donations for this year will come to about $5000 --1/2 to ACBL's charitable efforts and 1/2 to charitable organizations in our own community.  Isn't nice to know that having fun also helps organizations like People Helping People (a food bank), hospice, the Shrine Club (for children's hospitals) and St. Vincent De Paul.

Karen Alpaugh

Hi Annabelle…Hope you are enjoying the visit with your daughter. Figured I better give you a real update on me…My new valve is working fine and I now have a heart of a Bull so watch out when I get back to the bridge table. There is still some fluid in my lower lungs and am having the 3rd echo cardiogram Monday. That's really neat It sounds like you are in a submarine diving. Some days are good and occasionally I have a bad day when all I can do is lay about and eat frozen grapes…won't tell you about the recipe I now have for frozen grapes soaked in rum.  Oh and my address is 3850 N.Timucua Pt. Crystal River, Fl 34428. No house on this street 3820????

I miss you all and thank you all for the cards and email. It meant alot. I miss bridge and bridge players soooooooo much…hugs, karen [Alpaugh]

Annabelle was scheduled to teach the "Rule of 11" lesson Wednesday, July 20th.  Gerry Panos has agreed to teach the class instead, to allow Annabelle  time to spend with her daughter and grandson who will be visiting from Maryland.  You can always use a refresher on this subject and nobody can do a better job of  re "fresher" than Gerry!
