Spades. It's back on.

Columbus, January 15. Spades was once again the toast of the town, with the Moshdawgs and part of the Remix arriving in town. The lobby of the Hilton Polaris had some nice spades tables, and so the boys settled in for a fight. Bondoman was in attendance as well, but had to leave to get some sleep. Or so he claims...

Game 63:

Testy start to the playing, as both teams test each other with a close hand that the Remix held on to. Both teams nilled in the second hand and both made it. Things turned in hand 6 when the Remix got and bid a ten hand to win it. Remix wins 535 to 253, Moshdawgs up 32-31.

Game 64:

In hand 3, moshdawgs went nil 6, remix went 5. Andy's nil was busted early, then Adam's 6 was busted as well as andy tried to stop the remix getting 5. Moshdawgs went blind nil in the next one, and the nil wasn't an issue as the remix once again had and bid and made a ten hand. Remix then bid 7 and 6 to end it. Remix win 516 to -124, series now tied at 32.

Game 65:

After a good night sleep and breakfast, one game to break the tie. Remix set Moshdawgs in the first hand, set the blind nil in the second hand, and set the blind 7 in the third. Then three successful blinds plus the remix going over on overbooks got the moshdawgs back in it. A double set of a nil 5 bid in hand 10 put the remix in commanding position. Then the moshdawgs hit a blind 7 and blind 8 to force overtime. The remix then got a nil 5 to end it. Remix wins, 637-554, take the lead in the series 33-32.
