I'd hoped that the real def - 19, like a honeycomb - would remain
camouflaged by the excellent fakes, but six of you zeroed in on it
straight away! Five players got 5 points, but only Wayne Scott's were
natural, while Paul Keating and Tony Abell guessed the real def.

So the next deal goes to Wayne Scott with 5 natural points.

Over to you , Wayne.

Doh! Memo to self: read messages _before_ you post them.

My second sentence should have read:

"_Three_ players got 5 points, but only Wayne Scott's were
natural, while Paul Keating and Tony Abell guessed the real def."
