Ana never gave up the lead

A game of broken contracts — 38 of them around the table, and scores from 93 all the way down to 64.

Last, but with style: Mihai, with 64 points. At least there were cards worth talking about. In the first of the middle eights: Mihai said 2, made 6, and the evening was ruined for Scorpio04. 2 hands in a row: the whole table kept its word, only Mihai didn't — but insisted, with dignity.

Elena rounds out the podium with 67 points. Bronze still counts as a medal. 2 hands in a row: Elena broke the contract each time while everyone else made theirs.

Scorpio04 took second with 73 points — a fine evening, but the gods of whist were busy elsewhere. In the second of the opening eights, Scorpio04 bid 2 and took 6 — and Elena went down with it. 2 hands in a row: Scorpio04 broke the contract each time while everyone else made theirs. Scorpio04 sat thinking 6 times 🤔 — and still bid on a guess.

Ana won at a stroll, with 93 points and 20 clear of the rest. In front from the first of the opening eights to the end, and nobody got close enough to worry about. And that despite a slip in the very last hand.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
