The comeback of Elena

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

The tail of the table: Nico, with 58 points. Somebody has to hold the candle. 2 hands in a row: Nico broke the contract each time while everyone else made theirs. After the four-card hand on the way up, Nico was 3rd and dreaming of the podium — but the last hands had other plans.

Third, and on the podium: Ana, with 61 points. In the first of the middle eights: Ana said 2, scooped 6, and Mihai was left counting the pieces. Ana was even in front after the seven-card hand on the way down.

Runner-up sounds good — gold sounded better. Mihai, with 79 points. In the third of the middle eights: Mihai said 1, made 4, and the evening was ruined for Nico. 2 hands in a row: the whole table kept its word, only Mihai didn't — but insisted, with dignity.

First place and peace of mind: Elena, with 85 points. It didn't start well — only 3rd after the opening eights — but it clearly didn't end there.

Well played everyone — and especially Elena!
