1st Charles Reinke enjoyed a relatively unchallenged first-place finish as he finished one game and 500 spread points ahead of his nearest competition, going 4-1 +374. The high point of his evening was a hearty 523-312 win over Thomas Reinke; despite leading the club in bingos per game, Thomas failed to get a single bonus play, while Charles had three: WATTAGE, ENDIVES, and SERIEMA. Charles breached the 500-point barrier a second time against Helen Flores, coming out ahead in that encounter, 501-326. Another three bingos were in store for Charles that game (HAEREDES, OUTSAID, GERANIAL), while Helen was held to a grand total of zero bingos. Only Mark Kenas was able to put a stop to Charles' winning ways, winning the first of their two matches by a score of 481-379. Charles played the COVID-relevant BOOSTERS in that one, but Mark outdid him with ARCHNESS, CILIATE, and the Collins-only FLOATANT#.
2nd Thomas Reinke finished a distant second with his 3-2 -148 record. He got flattened by Mark Kenas in round one, outbingoed 0-4 and forced to record on his scoresheet a 376-521 final tally. Mark's gratuitous bingos included SARONGS, ENTWINE, MATURATE, and MOUNTING. However, Thomas got his revenge on Mark in round three with a 532-433 victory, this time playing three bingos: CRUNODAL, OLEARIA#, and ANDANTES. Thomas' game against Dennis Lloyd was considerably more closely-fought than either of those two games, with Thomas pulling out 420-393 win. Dennis got down a bingo of UNDERAGE, but Thomas' TOMENTUM and TOLLAGE were just enough to take the victory.
Dennis' SHIVAREE was word of the week.
