Looks like they did do something unethical, they just didn't cheat.

They argued with each other and took away from their opponents pleasure in
playing the game. That may be disagreeable but it certainly isn't unethical.
If it is, then about 1/2 of the ACBL has been guilty of unethical behavior
some time in their playing lives.

Funny idea some people have about ethics.


They breached the Laws on the Proprieties of Bridge - and most people think ethics and proprieties are the same.
