Minor Penalty Card - A single card below the rank of an honor and
exposed inadvertently (as in playing two cards to a trick, or in dropping a
card accidentally) becomes a minor penalty card. Any card of honor rank, or
any card exposed through deliberate play (as in leading out of turn, or in
revoking and then correcting), becomes a major penalty card; when one
defender has two or more penalty cards, all such cards become major penalty
cards.
|
1. |
The exposed card does not
have to be played at the first opportunity; another suit may be played
by offender |
|
2. |
Any honor from that suit
may be played, but the penalty card must be played if the offender does
not chose an honor |
|
3. |
Offender's partner is not
subject to lead penalties, provided unauthorized information was not
passed |
