Claussss, from start to finish

An evening with a bit of everything, except contracts kept: 52 slips at the table and scores from 109 down to 61.

First place: Claussss, with 109 points. The rest, see you in the replay. In front from the first of the opening eights to the end, and nobody got close enough to worry about. At one stretch, 9 good hands in a row. The five-card hand on the way up: 2 chairs thrown at Claussss in seconds 🪑 — the table spoke its mind, furnished and all.

Vasile finishes second, 10 points short of gold. Silver shines, but not quite the same. Vasile swore 0 in the four-card hand on the way up and took a trick — whist has a sense of humour.

chinezu' blond completed the podium with 73 points. In the last of the opening eights, chinezu' bid 1 and took 5 — and MulgeL went down with it. chinezu' spent a good while in last place and climbed out of it.

Neither at the front nor at the back: Cozie in 4th, with 65 points. The comfort zone. In the second of the closing eights, Cozie bid 1 and took 5 — and chinezu' blond went down with it. After the three-card hand on the way up, Cozie was 3rd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans. In the fourth of the closing eights the table couldn't make up its mind about Cozie: 1 chair and 1 kiss flew in within seconds 🪑💋.

MulgeL closed the table from the back, on 61 points — there is always a next game. After the two-card hand on the way up, MulgeL was 3rd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans. In the last of the opening eights, 2 chairs flew at MulgeL within seconds 🪑 — the table had opinions.

Well played everyone — and especially Claussss!
