Fifty thousand trump games in six years, all "documented" in a series of notebooks where the scores were recorded.
It is the incredible record of two pensioners guests of the retirement home of San Vigilio di Spiazzo, in the province of Trento, protagonists of an endless challenge at the gaming table.
The story of Vittorio Gasperi (65 years old) and Adriano Merighi (61) is so surprising that it was also taken up by the local press.
"We have never argued", explained the two "duelists". And Mr. Adriano, very sportingly (but also with data in hand) admitted: «It is Vittorio who manages to win the most» . Specifying, however, that it is all thanks to the "greater luck that assists him in the initial distribution of cards, as well as in the drawing during the game".
As for the score books, the two roommates, friends albeit rivals at the gaming table, jealously guard them in their room. There are a dozen at the moment, but they are destined to increase. Because, Adriano and Vittorio assure us, "we have no intention of stopping".
