The comeback of Alina

A game of broken contracts — 38 of them around the table, and scores from 107 all the way down to 62.

The tail of the table: Luis, with 62 points. Somebody has to hold the candle. 12 broken contracts, collected like stamps.

Third, and on the podium: Mihai, with 71 points. In the third of the opening eights: Mihai said 1, scooped 4, and Alina was left counting the pieces. Mihai was even in front after the seven-card hand on the way down.

unf0rgettable took second with 77 points — a fine evening, but the gods of whist were busy elsewhere. 2 hands in a row: only unf0rgettable slipped, while the rest said it and did it. The cards were kind to everyone but unf0rgettable. unf0rgettable was even in front after the last of the opening eights.

Alina took the game with 107 points and a 30-point cushion — never really in doubt. In the second of the middle eights: Alina called 2, took 5, and Luis was left out in the cold. It didn't start well — only 3rd after the opening eights — but it clearly didn't end there.

Well played everyone. Same table next time?
