In Response To: Are all premature actions necessarily bad? (Matt Ryder)

Matt: "In a tournament setting with big money at stake, yes. The pejorative 'premature' should hint at this. The problem is that things can easily get confused when moves are played out of sequence. What happens if you play a rogue who rolls a terrible number which would force him to expose blots, who waits for your 'fast cube' and then picks up his dice without playing? Explaining that mess to a TD would be much tougher because of your premature action. "

Håvard: That's actually a very good example. Player A picks up his dice without making a play. Player B says "No, you must play your roll legally." Player A says "No I don't, you have condoned my play by turning the cube."
