Luis comes back from behind

4 players · 20 October 2026

An evening with a bit of everything, except contracts kept: 40 slips at the table and scores from 92 down to 38.

First place: Luis, with 92 points. In the second of the opening eights: Luis said 0, made 4, and the evening was ruined for Ana. It didn't start well — only 3rd after the opening eights — but it clearly didn't end there.

Runner-up sounds good — gold sounded better. Mihai, with 86 points. Mihai was even in front after the last of the opening eights. 7 good hands in a row — at one point, Mihai was playing as if they could see everyone else's cards.

Ana completed the podium with 76 points. In the first of the middle eights, Ana bid 0 and took 5 — and Ionela and Mihai went down with them. 2 hands in a row: only Ana slipped, while the rest said it and did it. The cards were kind to everyone but Ana.

Ionela took last place without any nerves at all, on 38 points. Ionela had the table at their feet after the five-card hand on the way down. Whist was there to remind them nothing lasts forever. 2 hands in a row: only Ionela slipped, while the rest said it and did it. The cards were kind to everyone but Ionela.

Well played everyone — and especially Luis!
