At Board 18, Nicky Vella-Laurenti (MLT) faces Nicky Huitson (Eng), and knacky Nicky nukes Nicky 496-283, a big win for the Maltese. (I hear Wiggles fans arguing about this description: "Nicky 'knacky'? Not keen. Ooh!")

Geoff Cooper (Eng) reports that Kevin Synnott (Eng) had one S and Geoff had the rest of the power tiles, on the way to a 423–320 win.

Reno Zammit (MLT) had the lowest win so far, 340-280 over his clubmate Pawlu Frendo (MLT).

Esther Perrins (AUS) loses a second straight game, this time to Siu Hean Cheah (SGP), 407-428. Mikki Nicholson (Eng) beats Helen Gipson (Sco) on live video, 429-387.; Craig Beevers (Eng) beats Brid Ni Bhriain (IRL) 465-346; Howard Wilde (Eng) beats Nuala O'Rourke (NIr) 454-363. Suddenly, we go from one person with a one-game lead, to two, to six: Perrins, Beevers, Nicholson, Gipson, Wilde and Cheah.

Teatime!
