Luis wins the evening

A game of broken contracts — 37 of them around the table, and scores from 115 all the way down to 51.

Mihai took last place without any nerves at all, on 51 points. Started like a champion — top of the table after the last of the opening eights — and finished like a tragedy. 2 hands in a row: the table said and did, Mihai said and... hoped. It didn't hold.

Third, on the podium: Ana, up there with eyes on the top step. One card, a single card, and Ana still got it wrong on the one-card hand. It happens even in the best houses.

edge took second with 83 points — a fine evening, but the gods of whist were busy elsewhere. One card, a single card, and edge still got it wrong on the one-card hand. It happens even in the best houses.

Luis finishes on 115 points, 32 above the next — the rest were playing a different game, it seems. 12 good hands in a row — at one point, Luis was playing as if they could see everyone else's cards. And that despite a slip in the very last hand.

Well played everyone — and especially Luis!
