Game 12 - Jan. 10, 2009

DECATUR — The second match of 2009 was eerily similar to the first, except that it took nine hands to finish instead of ten. The final score was practically identical, with Greg winning, and Scott and Nick each improving a lone peg from Game 11 — still not good enough for Nick to avoid a second consecutive skunk, the first such misfortune for any player this season.

The outcome turned the league table upside-down, with Greg leaping into first place and Nick crashing to third, while Scott, recording his eighth second-place match result of the season, appropriately remained second in the table while moving up to second in cumulative pegging for the season (Greg 1335, Scott 1278, Nick 1265).
