Howell Movement ( 17:54:17 TueAug 20 2002 )

When playing a Howell Movement (6 or 7 tables) some pairs remain at the same table all night alternating between playing N/S and E/W. When they are playing E/W is E in charge of the table because they are the stationary pair at the table?

From: "What ACBL Players should know about the 1997 Laws Changes" by Gary Blaiss, ACBL Chief Tournament Director.

'Everyone has always been told that North is responsible for (procedures at) the table. In reality, some people (such as North are more responsible than others. Law 7 is better worded to say that 'Any contestant remaining at a table throughout a session is primarily responsible for maintaining proper conditions of play at the table'. This is much better. We are all responsible, but stationary players are more responsible."
