The comeback of Gigel

The lead passed from hand to hand, 6 times over — it was anyone's guess.

unf0rgettable closed the table from the back, on 74 points — there is always a next game. unf0rgettable had the table at their feet after the five-card hand on the way down. Whist was there to remind them nothing lasts forever. Level on points with Luis, and behind only on the tie-break.

Luis rounds out the podium with 74 points. Bronze still counts as a medal. The last hand decided it: Luis went past unf0rgettable right on the line. 2 hands in a row: Luis broke the contract each time while everyone else made theirs.

Catalin led for 16 hands but finished second, 1 point behind. The place above was a single point away. At one stretch, 7 good hands in a row.

Gigel won with 113 points, by a whisker: just 1 point ahead. 2 hands in a row: the whole table kept its word, only Gigel didn't — but insisted, with dignity.

Well played everyone — and especially Gigel!
