Mihai comes back from behind

The cards went out, and so did the egos. Here is what came of it.

Champion of the evening: Mihai, with 104 points. The rest, see you in the replay. It didn't start well — only 3rd after the opening eights — but it clearly didn't end there. 7 good hands in a row — at one point, Mihai was playing as if they could see everyone else's cards.

Second place went to Ana, with 91 points. 3 hands in a row: Ana broke the contract each time while everyone else made theirs. Ana was even in front after the third of the middle eights.

Third, on the podium: Luis, up there with eyes on the top step. Level on points with Ana, and behind only on the tie-break. 4 hands in a row: the whole table kept its word, only Luis didn't — but insisted, with dignity.

Last place, with dignity: Elena, with 79 points. Somebody had to do it. Started like a champion — top of the table after the last of the opening eights — and finished like a tragedy.

Well played everyone — and especially Mihai!
