Unfortunately Tzuhan could not join the tournament, even though the beginning of the games was delayed, and we were waiting for her. The game went on as a friendly game between the 3 remaining contestants, here are the end results after 9 rounds:

David -88
Stijn -84
Lea -101

Highlights: Game started good for Lea with 1 victory and one 5 points after 2 rounds, but turned very rough as David began blocking massively leading to 24 points to Him and Lea, and 22 points to Stijn at round 3. These sort of amounts in points continued for 2 more rounds bringing the score to D- 78, L -73, S -64. From then on David Changed his style, taking in only 10 more points and inflicting 28 and 20 points on Lea and Stijn respectively. Still not enough point to take the game which went to Stijn.

Group 1B (Jannita, Arwin, Florian, Daniela)

(in the Photo: end of game 2, Florian at the top with 24 points and becoming the first player to drop out of the tournament)

The game lasted 12 rounds, here are the results:

Jannita -70
Arwin -64
Florian -115
Daniela -101

Highlights: the first rounds were were slow and defensive as each player was dumping stones. Arwin especially managed to keep his losses low and in the rounds after opened a gap of 14 between him and Jannita and of 27 between him and Daniela. rounds 5-8 saw Jannita take in 23 points and Florian 29, extending the gap between 1st and 2nd places to 22 points leaving the game at A- 20, J -50, D -64, F -69. At this point it appears both Daniela and Florian lost their balance and began collecting points. on the 12th round Florian made the mistake of his tournament, with 91 points for him and 96 for Daniela, he locked the game on sixes while still holding 4 heavy stones. The round ended with A -3, J -4, D -5, F -24.
