 -----------------------------------

Order of Play:
  • Argus - 44
  • AJ - 90
  • Gypsy - 101
  • Weez - 104

Argus kicks off the new hand by loading up Row 2 with several points which will no doubt be taken by someone a few turns later.

Everyone else combines to close out Row 4 with few enough points to keep it as a potential bust target a few turns after that.

Order of Play:
  • Gypsy - 6
  • Weez - 28
  • Argus - 89
  • AJ - 99

Gypsy decides to take a point, starting a new low row and taking out Row 3.

Weez increments the new Row 2, and Argus and AJ pile on the points on the new Row 3. Maybe they won't be taken after all? Or someone still holding cards in the 100's is very nervous now.

The chance to offload low cards presents itself and everyone takes advantage, filling Row 1!

Order of Play:

  • Gypsy - 39
  • Argus - 61

AJ still has a low card and plays it while points are on sale, claiming 2 points and swiping the Row 2 rug out from under the other players. Weez is the first one to slip and fall down onto Row 1, collecting 7 points.

 -----------------------------------

Order of Play:
  • Gypsy - 26
  • Weez - 62
  • Argus - 63
  • AJ - 74

There's lots of space and guaranteed safety on Row 1 but only Gypsy takes advantage.

Weez and Argus have guaranteed safe plays on Row 2, filling it up. This is bad news for AJ who gambled that more people would play lower. At least it's only 5 points.

 -----------------------------------

Order of Play:

  • Gypsy - 42
  • AJ - 76
  • Argus - 94

Weez decides to snag the 1 point for Row 2. This means in addition to Gypsy filling one of the three spots on the old Row 1, AJ and Argus fill up the other two spots.

Most cards in play fit on Row 1, where there's room for everyone. And I'm not surprised everyone plays there!

Everyone tries to avoid busting low, with varying degrees of success. AJ ends up on the low end and collects 6 points, opting for Row 4, while everyone follows on.

Argus, in possession of the lead by quite a margin, has managed to avoid points this whole hand, but steps in now to claim 4 points. Everyone else follows behind...

Order of Play:
  • AJ - 30
  • Argus - 71
  • Gypsy - 95
  • Weez - 98

AJ is unlucky enough to have the low card for the last round, collecting 5 points for Row 1, letting Argus get away without any points.

Gypsy and Weez are stuck ending on Row 3, where Gypsy is certain of her 6-point doom while Weez is relieved to hold on to her second place spot.

Scores this hand:
Argus 4
Gypsy 7
Weez 8
AJ 18

Final scores this game:
Argus 29
Weez 43
Gypsy 52
AJ 79

Congrats Argus!
