CHARLO — When friends gathered after dinner at the Charlo Senior Citizens center on Wednesday, for a casual game of pinochle, little did they know it would turn into an afternoon of unexpected excitement.
They were amazed that each person who took the bid was able to meld a double run of trump. That happened uninterrupted seven times in succession.
As the games progressed the players: Dick Kerr, Gene Martin, Pic Olsen, Doris Nordyke, Becky Olsen, and Deanne Balfour, were reluctant to take the bid, for fear of breaking the sequence that was developing.
We’d like to hear from anyone who has also witnessed such a feat.
