Yes, these are allowed! But partner must be ”fooled” just like the opposition, otherwise it effectively becomes an undisclosed agreement. To prevent abuse, all psyche bids must be recorded by the person who made the bid in the Psyche folder which is located at the director’s desk. Failure to report a psyche may well result a penalty.
