1)[line 8]פותחין להן פתח ממקום אחרPOSCHIN LAHEN PESACH MI'MAKOM ACHER (CHARATAH)
(a)When an adult makes a Neder (or designates Chalah, Terumah, or Kodshim) or Nezirus, and he regrets having made the Neder, he may have it revoked by a Beis Din of three (if they are not outstanding authorities) or a Yachid Mumcheh (an outstanding authority). The general method used is that Beis Din investigates whether the person would not have made the Neder in the first place had he been aware of a particular fact. This investigation provides the person with a "Pesach" (opening) with which the Beis Din can revoke the Neder.
(b)If there are no facts that the person who made the Neder was not aware of but, nevertheless, he now regrets making the Neder, there is a Machlokes Tana'im as to whether the fact that the person regrets having made the Neder ("Charatah") is enough of a Pesach to allow the Neder to be annulled. The Halachah follows the opinion that Charatah is a valid Pesach in and of itself.
(c)The above interpretation follows the opinion of the RI and the RAN. RASHI (cited by RAV AVRAHAM MIN HA'HAR) and RABEINU TAM, however, claim that the words "mi'Makom Acher" indicate that the Chachamim in this Mishnah rule that Charatah is not a valid Pesach for these Nedarim.
