Lead is in dummy (west hand).
Contract is 4♣, declarer has already lost one trick.

declarer claims 2/4 without stating the line and is rejected.

this is the last table playing.

N has not shown out of hearts yet, declarer has count on ♣, but not on anything else.

director adjusts the board to making after the rejected claim. thoughts?

What was the director smoking?

Without a stated line of play the director cant accept any line of play which depends on finding one opp with a particular card. (Unless one op has shown out previously)

I think if you claim making in this situation with no explanation that the director must then choose a reasonable line of play that is most beneficial to the defenders. In this case, that would be the failing heart finesse. So, I would assign -1 here. There is no way to continue play after this claim.

Director needs to read his law book.

deleted, I misread which hand was dummy.
Is the word "pass" not in your vocabulary?
So many experts, not enough X cards.
