I play the Ten of Batons. My pocket totals 33, your pocket totals 31, so I score both L’Aria and Il Toro for a total of 5 points.

Game ends with a Fine: Pokes did not have the Knave of Swords in their hand. Clucky wins 1 Peg and 1 Magistrelli, Pokes loses 1 Peg.

Correction: 2 Pegs/Magistrelli rather than 1, with the Sfida.
