Default [Dixonary] Round 2805 FURGON Results

It's a three-way tie to be the next dealer, with Tim Bourne, Keith Hale,
and Mike Shefler all ending up with unnatural fours. Mike is ahead in the
rolling scores, so he takes the next deal, leaving Tim and Keith as
relieved real winners. Those three were also the only ones to guess that a
FURGON is a poker.

Over to you, Mike.
