What is renigging?

Renigging is a term used in card games, particularly in contract bridge, and it refers to the act of failing to follow suit when one is able to do so. It is considered a serious breach of the rules of the game and is generally penalized with point deductions or disqualification from the game. Renigging can occur intentionally or unintentionally, but in either case, it is viewed as a violation of the spirit of fair play and can lead to bad blood between players. It is important for players to be aware of the rules of the game and to pay close attention to the cards they play to avoid renigging and any associated penalties.
