1st Charles Reinke won his third straight club session with a 3-1 +409 outing. All three of his victories saw him surmount the 500-point barrier, leading to an average per-game score of 490 for the evening. His single loss was delivered to him by none other than Mark Kenas, 393-538. Mark used his 3+ decades of bingo study to blitz Charles with bonus plays, getting down PREGAME, EYESHOT, GRUNTER, and QUINOAS, while Charles was left with a single bingo of INVADERS. Revenge was served in round four as Charles reversed that result and then some, beating Mark 516-324. In between those two games, Charles unleashed his own ample reserves of bingo knowledge upon club founder Richard Lauder, playing an astonishing five bingos (CAVEATS, GATEPOST, INTARSIA, LENIENT and EVULSION) en route to a 534-321 victory.

2nd Thomas Reinke turned in yet another solid performance with a 3-1 +199 record. While accustomed to playing more bingos than his opponents in most games, Thomas subverted that expectation by beating Helen Flores 436-360 despite getting outbingoed two to one. Thomas only had GALLEINS in that game, compared to Helen's ETOILES and CAROUSES. In a later match against Dennis Lloyd, Thomas unsubverted that expectation by playing three bingos (FETATIONS, BARTEND, RESISTOR) to Dennis' one (LUNGERS) in a 469-352 triumph. Thomas fell short of a perfect record when he was bested by Mark Kenas, 377-448, finding himself unable to withstand Mark's barrage of scoring plays which included RATLINS, SERVANTS, and WAIRUAS#.
