The only place I ever saw it actually suggested as a real feature of the game was in the book "Bridge at the Enigma Club", but that was a fantasy.


It was suggested once when Eddie Kantar was going to make a grand slam try (the reason he didn't bid a small slam) and was ruled against when partner signed off slowly in 5.

It might not be. Partner can see what you are doing, and that might be illegal communication if you have ever done it before.

Yes. I have done it myself but it is probably not a good idea unless you are very sure p won't notice or can't read anything into it. Which may be hard to prove to the TD.

I have sometimes read about top players who did such things when playing with screens, but that is of course different.
