To review the tournament from the start game by game click
here and follow the new posts link at the bottom of the page, bellow are Tournament points charts game by game.
After a very good show from Arwin Caljouw and Stijn van der Vlueten, who were marked as possible winners for the tournament, our 3rd favorite David Luxembourg takes the tournament with 2 stunning games. beating Arwin 29 - 103 and Stijn 53 - 107. A surprising end to the day from the Domino Master who had high hopes to see one of his apprentices win, but could not give them their victory so easily.

While the main games were going on, a series of Friendly games between the players who went out continued, the target of these games was to make sure that all players participating in the tournament will 5 games, and in the case of a winning of the tournament by David or Daniela, the grand prize will to the player who has the lowest score after 5 games.
During the games we have also seen 2 new
Luxembourg Draw Dominoes records take place:
Arwin Caljouw set the record for the smallest amount of points ever collected during a Luxembourg game - 23 points
Lea Liabastre-Chopin set the record for the most points ever taken in a single round -58 points
At the end of Day, after all players completed the game we compose the following score chart:
From which we can create the Luxembourg DD Tournament Rankings:
#1 - David Luxmebourg - 322 points
#2 - Arwin Caljouw - 343 points
#3 - Stijn van der Vlueten -356 points
#4 - Florian de Visser -432 points
#5 - Jannita van den Haak -450 points
#6 - Daniela Pais -507 points
#7 - Lea Liabastre-Chopin -520
#8 -Tzhan Yeh - forfeit
Perhaps the biggest disappointment of the day is to find Daniela and Lea in the last positions. seeing 2 of the most experienced Luxembourg DD players in the tournament reach those positions was as surprising as watching Arwin , practically a newcomer, blitzing them out of the tournament in game 2b.
And the Grand Prize goes for Arwin Caljouw, with only 343 points collected in 5 games he is the next eligible palyer for the prize, and after such good performance during games 1, 2 & 3, including a new Luxembourg DD record we think he deserves it!
