HEEMSTEDE - She had the same number of table points as the runner up, and only ten mahjongpoints more: 459 over 449. So Dimphy van Grinsven really was the luckiest player today in the Valentine Tournament (MERS 1) at Heemstede, the Netherlands. Marijke Koehorst, last year's winner, did not participate.

Runner-up was Petra Elferink, third place was for Désirée Heemskerk. The Dutch qualification for the OEMC2011 is already finished, so this tournament could be considered a good opportunity to practise for the European championship. 68 players had subscribed to the competition.
