It's not even an underhanded trick so why should Nodoka, or anyone else for that matter, fault her for it even if she did do +/- 0 again. If anything it just shows that she's THAT skilled.
She promised Nodoka to not do that again, and it's one of the few subjects the pink haired machine has shown an emotional response to. Now Saki did that same thing (apparently) twice, in national TV. Regardless of the results, Nodoka will demand an explanation. Also, Saki only stated, and we only expected, she would win, not play god in the table, as strategically sound as it might be, and we got no previous hint that she'd try something even close to that, and we certainly didn't expect Himematsu of all teams to make it through, especially since Eisui had all the signs of being the one going forward (pending development, boobs).

@Sumeragi
You say that as if there was something wrong with Sera, and it's a well known fact otakus like tomboys.

Also, I wonder if someone will ever finish translating that awesome doujin.
