The comeback of Elena

5 players · 25 October 2026

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

Last place, with dignity: Mihai, with 78 points. Somebody had to do it. After the two-card hand on the way up, Mihai was 3rd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans.

Neither at the front nor at the back: unf0rgettable in 4th, with 89 points. The comfort zone. 2 hands in a row: unf0rgettable broke the contract each time while everyone else made theirs. Before the last eights, only 9 points off the podium — the pace just didn't hold.

Third, and on the podium: mar-ius, with 95 points. 2 hands in a row: the table said and did, mar-ius said and... hoped. It didn't hold. From the tail of the table to a warm spot: mar-ius plays right down to the last card.

edge led for 17 hands but finished second, 2 points behind. 10 good hands in a row — at one point, edge was playing as if they could see everyone else's cards.

2 points. That's all. Elena won in the blink of an eye — so don't blink. In the four-card hand on the way down, Elena bid 0 and took 3 — and edge went down with it. And that despite a slip in the very last hand.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
