Chairs filled quickly, cards were shuffled with purpose, and the room buzzed with the unmistakable energy of people enjoying themselves.
Members agreed it was a wonderful evening all around: good weather, good food, good company, spirited play, and proof that a little sunshine can do marvelous things — especially when it persuades people to spend a Wednesday night enthusiastically arguing over pairs, runs, and whether somebody counted that hand correctly. Nineteen people gathered to play our favorite game! The results of the night were as follows:
First, with a Grand Slam, Collin Evanson with a 12/6 +74 card
Second, Mary Alice Russell with an 11/5 +71 card
Third, for the second week in a row, Bill Russell with a 10/4 +97 card
Fourth, for the second week in a row, Samantha Cron with an 8/4 +25 card
Fifth, David Christensen with an 8/4 +21 card
There were THREE 24-point hands dealt, to Byram Devine, Collin Evanson, and George Giosmas. Second-place winner Mary Alice Russell had an infamous FLUSH crib. Seven skunks were suffered Wednesday night!
