The comeback of Mihai

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

Last place: Lucky, with 64 points. 2 hands in a row: the table said and did, Lucky said and... hoped. It didn't hold. After the second of the closing eights, Lucky was 3rd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans.

Elena completed the podium with 70 points. 2 hands in a row: only Elena slipped, while the rest said it and did it. The cards were kind to everyone but Elena.

Ana led for 9 hands but finished second, 21 points behind. Ana said they'd take nothing in the four-card hand on the way down... and took some. Whist listens, then does the opposite.

Mihai won at a stroll, with 101 points and 21 clear of the rest. At one stretch, 8 good hands in a row.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
