Computer hands
Hand records prepared by the computer
provide not only truly random deals but
also a practical, quick, inexpensive
method of producing duplicated hands
for a multi-section bridge event.
Convention
1. A convention is a call that, by
partnership agreement, conveys a
meaning other than the natural
meaning of the call. A natural call
can show a willingness to play in
the denomination named (or in
the last denomination named), or
an understanding regarding highcard
strength or an
understanding regarding length
(three cards or more).
2. A defensive convention is a play
by defender that serves to convey
a meaning by agreement rather
than by inference.
Convention card
A convention card is a shortcut to allow
the opponents to know what system a
partnership has elected to play. It lists
generally used conventions and
treatments on a check off basis and
provides space to list other conventions
and treatments. Each player is required
to have an ACBL convention card filled
out legibly and on the table throughout
the session. Both cards of a partnership
must be identical and include the first
and last names of each member of the
partnership. See also Standard
American Yellow Card in this
13
publication and " Convention Cards " at
www.acbl.org/convention.
Convention charts
Each ACBL game is governed by a
specific convention chart that states the
conventional agreements allowed. There
is a Limited Chart, a General Chart, a
Mid-Chart and a Super-Chart.
Convention Charts can be found at
www.acbl.org/charts.
Conventional Wisdom
Conventional Wisdom is a reprint of
articles from the Bridge Bulletin
magazine that shows how to fill out the
convention card line by line with advice
from the ACBL editors. See
www.acbl.org/conventionalwisdom.
Cooperative Advertising Program
(CAP)
The CAP is a program available to
teachers, clubs, units, districts and
ACBL members who are involved with
promoting bridge. CAP will refund 75%
of eligible advertising costs with a
maximum reimbursement of $750.
Qualifying advertisements are datespecific
ad campaigns for beginner
bridge lessons, newcomer programs,
social bridge recruitment events and
ACBL member recruitment. For more
information visit: www.acbl.org/cap.
Correction period
The time specified by the sponsoring
organization during which corrections to
the score may be sought is the official
correction period for a sanctioned game.
