The comeback of Ana

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

Cretu took last place without any nerves at all, on 37 points. In the seven-card hand on the way down: Cretu called 2, took 5, and Ana was left out in the cold. 3 hands in a row: only Cretu slipped, while the rest said it and did it. The cards were kind to everyone but Cretu.

Third, on the podium: Mihai, up there with eyes on the top step. 2 hands in a row: the whole table kept its word, only Mihai didn't — but insisted, with dignity. Mihai was even in front after the six-card hand on the way down.

Elena led for 14 hands but finished second, 4 points behind. Elena was ahead of Ana right up to the last hand.

Ana comes out on top of everyone, with 100 points. The cards were kind. Ana only went in front at the very last hand. In the last of the middle eights: Ana said 3, scooped 6, and Mihai was left counting the pieces.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
