Denisa never gave up the lead

A game of broken contracts — 41 of them around the table, and scores from 82 all the way down to 58.

Last place: Ana, with 58 points. After the two-card hand on the way up, Ana was 3rd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans.

Third, on the podium: Mihai, up there with eyes on the top step. Mihai left the robot at the wheel most of the evening and still came out respectable. Teamwork with the server.

Second place went to Sebi, with 78 points. In the first of the middle eights: Sebi called 4, took 7, and Mihai was left out in the cold.

First place: Denisa, with 82 points. In the third of the middle eights: Denisa said 3, made 7, and the evening was ruined for Mihai. In front from the last of the opening eights to the end, and nobody got close enough to worry about.

Well played everyone — and especially Denisa!
