Slow play, placing hands in the wrong compass point, failing to count cards, failing to ensure all cards in a hand are replaced back in the holder, etc., etc.

Where a penalty is appropriate, how do you penalise a pair without rewarding the opposing pair? In a situation whereby a player/pair should justly be penalised for some wrong that has not disadvantaged any one particular opposing pair how do you penalise them without rewarding an opposing pair with extra undeserved tricks. The book talks about deducting IMPs but we score with averages(using ScoreBridge).

By giving a PP in IMP's, VP's or a percentage of the MP's. In the last case you have to substract so many procents or MP's of their score, but you don't add these to the score of the other pair. I dn't know about ScoreBridge, but if it's a half decent program, this should be possible.

In ScoreBridge you can issue 'fines' and for a match pointed pairs event the standard amount would be 10% of a top.

Go to the Score Sheets window for the board in question; the fines columns are the last two in the score traveller table.

Thanks for that. I see that deducts points; is there any guide to how many points should be deducted (I think the book talks about 3 IMPS).

That's right if it's scored in IMPs. If it's match points, 10% of a top.
