Good morning Riddle Masters! Happy Friday!

It’s time for the third and final riddle of the week:

Four men sat down to play; they played all night till the break of day. They played for gold and not for fun, with separate scores for every one. When they had come to square accounts, they all had made quite fair amounts. Can you the paradox explain, if no one lost, how all could gain?

Ah, this one is going to make you think, dear members!
