Play in order of lowest card first:

Argus 2
AJ 4
Weez 6
Aqua 39

Weez might be forgiven for thinking that she would be first, rather than third, this round as both Argus and AJ go before her, taking the opportunity to ditch low cards. Argus does take a point on row 1 to do so though.

Aqua continues on his lonely trek on row 2!

Argus puts paid to that though by taking the last spot!

Weez wanders off to row 3 on her own

The other shuffle closer to get onto the same row!

Argus ends up caught in his own trap! Forced to bust the new row 2 for 6 points. Could have been worse!

RESULTS END OF ROUND 3

Aqua = 21 points

(12 points this round)
AJ = 25 points (7 points this round)
Weez = 33 points (6 points this round)
Argus = 46 points
