Mihai comes back from behind

9 changes of leader: this one was a tug of war.

Champion of the evening: Mihai, with 128 points. The rest, see you in the replay. 7 good hands in a row — at one point, Mihai was playing as if they could see everyone else's cards. And that despite a slip in the very last hand.

Elena took the runner-up spot with 111 points. 2 hands in a row: the table said and did, Elena said and... hoped. It didn't hold. Elena was even in front after the seven-card hand on the way down.

Adrian Gh rounds out the podium with 99 points. Bronze still counts as a medal. Adrian was even in front after the three-card hand on the way down.

In 4th place, Catalin, on 95 points. After the third of the closing eights, Catalin was 3rd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans.

Claudiu finishes right in the middle — neither hot nor cold — 5th, with 92 points. In the second of the middle eights: Claudiu said 1, made 4, and the evening was ruined for Cozo. After the two-card hand on the way up, Claudiu was 2nd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans.

Cozo took last place without any nerves at all, on 70 points. 15 broken contracts, collected like stamps.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
