With the 1-card on the board, a unique opportunity to dump single-digit cards without having to take a point presented itself. Argus, AJ, and Weez took advantage! Gypsy, meanwhile, doubled the points on Row 4 introducing some risk for anyone with high cards and instantly introducing some tactical choices for everyone. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 |

And the tatcical moves begin! Gypsy switches from high to low and has a guaranteed safe play on Row 1 and fills the last spot with her 7. Argus is the first to break from the highest/lowest row combo and starts working on Row 3, with 3 spots available for the majority of cards in play. And AJ and Weez pile on the points to Row 4, where there's just enough room for one more card. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 |

There's lots of space on Row 2 but only Gypsy goes there. Argus and Weez increment Row 3 conservatively, while AJ plays high, filling up the last spot. That's 3 turns with nobody taking any points! It's theoretically possible to do one more turn without a bust.... | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 | While the cat's away, the mice will play! Or, is that the cat's playing with a mouse? In any case, take your time taking your move but no need to wait to post the results of the last round.

To nobody's surprise, everyone falls on Row 2. But there's room for only three, and AJ collects 9 points. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 |

AJ's 84 from the previous round is the perfect set-up for Weez, Gypsy, and Argus who pile on to the wide-open Row 2. AJ did not set himself up well, though, and is the only one playing on Row 1, taking 5 points in the process. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 |

Plenty of room on Row 1, and even more since it's a 1-pointer and three players go for the bust. AJ takes points for a third consecutive turn, but is on a nice downward trend with only one pip to his score. Gypsy and Argus follow behind. Weez makes sure Row 2 isn't the next bust target, making Row 3 the lowest scoring bust choice.... | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 |

Gypsy made an offer to bust "unless some nice person plays lower". AJ is that nice person, continuing his streak with four consecutive point-taking rounds, this one for 6 points. Weez and Arguz fill up the old Row 1! | | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 77,048 Likes: 60 Wizop Administrator |  Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 77,048 Likes: 60 | AJ  | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 |

AJ just can't stop taking points. His fifth consecutive bust nets him 6 points. He's alone on Row 1, though, as the rest of the crowd heads for Row 2. Gypsy is unlucky enough to collect 10 points. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 |

AJ finally gets a break from taking points thanks to his setup last round. Everyone does, actually, as every card between 24 and 82 is guaranteed safe, filling up Row 1. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,590 Likes: 15 |

Weez is unlucky enough to have the low card on the final turn, collecting 5 points for busting Row 2. Gypsy is the only one not taking points this turn, as she follows behind Weez. Argus finds himself wishing he'd have played his last two cards in the opposite order, collecting 9 points for the old Row 1. And AJ caps off the game with an inevitable 10 points for Row 3. Ouch all around. Points taken this round: Weez 5 Argus 9 Gypsy 10 AJ 37 Scores so far this game: Argus 25 Weez 35 Gypsy 45 AJ 61 | | |
