I don't think I've ever seen this before.

I got tricky and overcalled a 1 opening to my right by bidding 2 with KQx 108xxx 0 AKJxx.

LHO bid 2, and my partner raised to 3.

RHO, red, bid 3. I doubled.

Here's where it gets really funky.

LHO redoubled.

Partner went into the tank and bid 4.

RHO bid 4. I doubled.

LHO passed, partner passed, and RHO corrected himself to 4. I doubled.

LHO now corrected back to 5, passed to me.

I doubled.

So, 5 doubled, down four.

This was, of course, critical, as 3, redoubled, down two would be only 1000.

Hain't ne'er seen nat.

And we ask police officers, prosecutors, defense lawyers, and citizens to enforce or abide by it? The legislature continues to write unreadable statutes. Gibberish should not be enforced as law."

You mean you haven't seen it ever, or just in a live game?

on BBO much worse bridge happens (ok not much worse, but equally bad)
... and I can prove it with my usual, flawless logic.
