In round 1857, 3 players earned top spot with 5 points: they were Bill Hirst, Dodi Schultz and
Paul Keating. Bill Hirst's definition "A cypress dug-out canoe once used in the swamps of
Louisiana and Mississippi." earned its author the deal, and the others can heave a sigh of relief
that their defs did not earn one more vote.
Nancy Shepherdson gets two dealer points because your dealah managed to lose her def. That
with two points for voting for the actual def puts her in second place.
There was no suspense revolving aroudn a D0 since the first vote in put that aside. The true
definition was 16: "A tobacco pipe with a long stem and a clay bowl. " (American Heritage
Dictionary, 4th Ed.), which 5 perceptive players guessed.
