Mihai comes back from behind

The lead changed hands 4 times — nobody got comfortable at the top.

Mihai won with 85 points, by a whisker: just 3 points ahead. Mihai only went in front at the very last hand. In the first of the opening eights: Mihai called 1, took 4, and Elena and Scorpio04 were left out in the cold.

Scorpio04 finished second, just 3 points short of the win. In the last of the closing eights: Scorpio04 said 3, scooped 6, and Elena was left counting the pieces. Scorpio04 was ahead of Mihai right up to the last hand.

Ana completed the podium with 72 points. The last hand decided it: Ana went past Elena right on the line. 2 hands in a row: only Ana slipped, while the rest said it and did it. The cards were kind to everyone but Ana.

Last place: Elena, with 70 points. Elena was ahead of Ana right up to the last hand. 2 hands in a row: the whole table kept its word, only Elena didn't — but insisted, with dignity.

Congratulations to all — see you at the next table!
