Radu comes back from behind

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

First place, no appeal: Radu, with 119 points. In the first of the opening eights: Radu called 1, took 4, and Elena was left out in the cold. It didn't start well — only 6th after the opening eights — but it clearly didn't end there.

Elena took the runner-up spot with 115 points. In the third of the middle eights: Elena said 0, made 3, and the evening was ruined for Emi and Ioana. At one stretch, 9 good hands in a row.

Mihai completed the podium with 113 points. The last hand decided it: Mihai went past Emi right on the line. Mihai was even in front after the fifth of the middle eights.

Emi finishes right in the middle — neither hot nor cold — 4th, with 107 points. Emi was ahead of Mihai right up to the last hand. After the four-card hand on the way up, Emi was 3rd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans.

In 5th place, Ana, on 105 points. After the three-card hand on the way up, Ana was leading the table — but the last hands had other plans.

Ioana took last place without any nerves at all, on 81 points. 13 broken contracts, collected like stamps.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
