Heya folks,
In round 1755, 2 players earned top spot with 6 points: they were Dave Cunningham and Johnny Barrs. Dave Cunningham takes the deal, because his top score was natural and Johnny's wasn't.
There were 2 players in runner-up position with 4 points each: Dodi Schultz and Guerri Stevens.
The true definition was 15: "1. _of a hat_ : shallow-crowned and having a wide brim turned up at the back to hold flower trimmings; 2 _of women's dress_ : having back pleats falling loosely from neckline to hem." (Merriam-Webster Online Dictionary), leaving me with a D4.
