Ughhh, everything was going great today, and then this had to happen. Check the screenshots. I thought it was going to be my first 4 straight 0-26ers ever in hearts, but I got a bad fourth hand. And then I got a great fifth hand, but one of the stupid girls threw out some hearts early, and I got stuck with the rest -2 :grumpy:

Looking good :smile:
