In Response To: Jacoby Rule for Match Play? (Phil Simborg)

Jacoby would hurt the leader at 2a since winning the match with an undoubled gammon would no longer be possible. If adopted, would Jacoby also apply in the Crawford game? If so, that would really hurt the trailers MWC at all even number away scores.

I'd be against this change in tournament rules.
