What is a "penalty"?
Penalty refers to the points or score given to the defending team when they successfully prevent the declarer from meeting the requirements of their bid. In games like bridge, if the declarer fails to win the number of tricks they committed to during the bidding phase, the defending team is awarded penalty points. This happens when the declarer's hand is weaker than expected or when the opponents strategically win enough tricks to stop the declarer from fulfilling the contract. Penalty points help the defending team earn points for their efforts in blocking the declarer's plan.
