In a card game named Allemande, each of four players has a hand of 8 cards from a standard deck of 52. Through a series of discards, players try to maximize the point value of their final hand. Suits are irrelevant. Cards Ace through 10 have a point value of the number of their card: for example, the five of any suit would be worth 5 points. Face cards (Jack, Queen, and King) are worth 20 points each. Does Charles have the highest value final hand?

1) Charles' hand is worth 117 points
2) No other player besides Charles have the highest has more than four face cards in his hand
