A tug of war, won by Mihai

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

Mihai won the game with 94 points.

Runner-up sounds good — gold sounded better. Sebi, with 87 points. Sebi got past Elena at the very last hand. In the first of the closing eights: Sebi said 1, made 4, and the evening was ruined for Elena.

Ana rounds out the podium with 81 points. Bronze still counts as a medal. The last hand decided it: Ana went past Elena right on the line. 2 hands in a row: Ana broke the contract each time while everyone else made theirs.

Last, but with style: Elena, with 81 points. At least there were cards worth talking about. Level on points with Ana, and behind only on the tie-break. In the seven-card hand on the way up: Elena said 3, made 6, and the evening was ruined for Ana and Mihai.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
