Person #2: Edward (- £5).
Person #3: Alice (+ £14).
Person #4: Daniel (- £7).
Person #5: Claire (- £6).

#3 is Alice.
- Alice won £14, because £2 lost by the sister-in-law, and £12 lost by the
men.

the husband (Daniel).

£9, of which only £2 was lost by the sisters.
- Edward lost £5, as the two men lost a total of £12, of which £7 was lost
by Daniel.

lost by the couple Barbara-Edward is £1.
- Claire lost £6, as the total loss of the two sisters is £2, but Barbara won £4.
