1st Thomas Reinke found himself in a familiar position in the nightly standings as a 4-1 +350 performance snagged him another first-place finish. All his scores were over 400 points, even his loss, which was a rather sound 415-542 beating at the hands of Mark Kenas. Thomas got bingos of AREOLES and CABRIOLE, but Mark had BATONED#, DOPESTER, and ORIGANS. Thomas was better able to cope with that outcome given that he had already beaten Mark earlier in the night, with a similarly lopsided final score of 490-361. Thomas had CONDOLES, ELATERS, and STOURIER# in that one, while Mark's triple-triple of ANGELICA for 140 points needed to be worth about twice that for Mark to have a shot. Thomas put the finishing touches on his productive outing with a 460-327 win over Dennis Lloyd, playing RAVENERS, NEURONAL, and KEITLOAS in the process.

2nd Due to how the two-on-one matchups shook out, Charles Reinke got the rare opportunity to play six games in a single club session, but didn't even manage to compile an unprecedented 6-0 record, instead going 4-2 +433. In the first round, he lost a tightly-fought, high-scoring contest against Mark Kenas by a score of 461-472. Charles' bingos were AMPUTEES and ROUTINES; Mark had SUDAMINA#, FAVORING, and GRUNTLES. Charles' other loss was against none other than Thomas Reinke, a 371-429 affair which was a bit lower-scoring than a typical game of theirs. However, Charles' scores in the four games he won were 479, 478, 477, and 476, demonstrating the scary consistency of his point-scoring abilities.
