Hi !
Recently i played with friends and agreed undos.

One friend said that we are obliged to accept a undo when playing a hand but not during the auctions.

Is it true ?

Thank you

Some hosts disallow undos altogether.
Some hosts disallow undos during the play but allow them during the auction.
I have never before encountered a table that disallows them during the auction but allows them during the play.
I have never before encountered a table that obliges you to accept an undo, where permitted, in either the play or auction.

Anyway, the software and laws both allow undos throughout auction and play. As with many other areas, the table hosts or tourney hosts who set policies for the table or event may set additional rules, often in conflict with the laws, which you take on board when you join, or else play at another table. But don't make the mistake of assuming that those rules extend generally to other tables.
Psych (pron. saik): A gross and deliberate misstatement of honour strength and/or suit length. Expressly permitted under Law 73E but forbidden contrary to that law by Acol club tourneys.

Psyche (pron. sahy-kee): The human soul, spirit or mind (derived, personification thereof, beloved of Eros, Greek myth).
Masterminding (pron. mPosted ImagesPosted ImagetPosted Imager-mPosted ImagendPosted Imageing) tr. v. - Any bid made by bridge player with which partner disagrees.
