A Pinochle Phenomenon

[The Dude]

So at one point, my partner and I were down 23 to -77. Then we were up 122 to 118. Three hands later we were up 134 to 0. Both our opponents were good, experienced pinochle players. We ended up winning the game in 17 hands.

Very strange.

So you're actually a 65 year old woman?

Dude said Pinochle, not bridge.

I've had games like that... depending on the cards you get and the players you're against, anything can happen. I once had kings around (that's 80pts meld) and my partner had 6 aces(94 meld total). We started the hand 16 in the hole and still went out.
