This was a slow round, with the votes quite evenly spread and a close finish.

In the end the next deal goes to Nancy Shepherdson with 4 natural points for her Cyrillic acronym.
It's somewhat ironic that she commented "(I’ll do anything to avoid a third back-to-back deal...)".
Sorry, Nancy!

Dick Weltz and Glen Boswell are the real winners with 4 unnatural points each.
