Local Rules bridge director

Alert
The local rules are clearly defined here. Pattaya bridge club is an international club and the rules of one particular organisation (say the ACBL) do not necessarily apply. In particular the Alert Procedures differ from many organisations in that you only need to alert bids that are 'unexpected'. So Stayman and Jacoby Transfers over 1NT, for example, do not need alerting but a natural bid or 2/ should be alerted.  
   
       
 
zero tolerence
The club operates a (near to) zero tolerence policy and trouble-makers are quickly despatched.  
       
 
bridge books Library
The Pattay Bridge Club has a comprehensive library from which members can borrow bridge books, magazines, bridge DVD's and bridge computer CD's.
