Helmut Tetmann from Luftenberg was crowned overall winner of the Raiffeisen Tarockcup Austria on Saturday. After going into the final round with a lead that could no longer be caught, he also convinced on Saturday with a fourth place on the day and got the overall ranking with 1307 points ahead of Gerhard Kovacic from Wels (1071) and Hermann Manzenreiter (957) from Bad Leonfelden . “It was a worthy end to a wonderful cup season. The tarock scene is flourishing,” says head of organization Hans Fuchs about the 20 cup rounds played.
The use of a new EDP has proven its worth, as has the selection of the venues with the crowning glory in the Gasthaus Haudum. There, 181 tarot players had gathered on the game tables for the final round. By the way, the day’s win on Saturday went to overall second Gerhard Kovacic (175 points) ahead of Linz’s Kurt Haider (168) and Walter Veit (164) from Aigen-Schlägl. At the award ceremony, the organizers of the Tarock Cup thanked all participants and visitors for their support and are already looking forward to next year, when the competition will start again.
