Play in order of lowest card first:

Weez 1
Argus 60*3
AJ 80*3
Aqua 101

A start of extremes.. almost!

Weez plays her 1 as it is always good to guarantee a 1 point bust with it. She takes row 4.

Everyone else would have been on row 4, in fact they still are! grin Just a different one, having racked up the points. wink

Both the other two play high. Aqua on row 3 and Argus squeezing into the last spot on row 4! wink

Whereas the same applies on row 3 with Aqua & Argus working together. wink

However there is now only 1 space left eek

Play in order of lowest card first:

AJ 22*5
Weez 83
Aqua 92
Argus 102

And the players decide to keep the same play order. wink

So as he half expected, AJ is first into the frame busting row 1 for 7. wink

Next is Weez gingerly testing the ice on row 2, surprised she is first there! It breaks into 9 points! Oops! eek Aqua follows on. smile

And Argus finds an excellent play, sliding into the last spot of row 3! grin

Argus has the ideal safe play of 23. Weez has a similar idea with her 26. AJ feels fairly safe with his 31 and Aqua takes the row to an extreme with 90*3! grin

Play in order of lowest card first:

Aqua 27
Argus 35*2
AJ 55*7
Weez 84

With a 2 point bust available it is no surprise that everyone plays under the 90! And the first brave explorer to venture down the dark cobweb strewn passage is Aqua, washing all the webs away until he reaches the second turning. A small spider bite for 2 points and he is on his way! grin

Argus, his wingman follows closely to give support whilst AJ gives them a little distance. Weez is taking rear guard and she figures that rear means rear! wink

Only one safe spot. Who will lead the party forward?

Shouldn't the new row ending with 84 be the first row?

The way we usually play, yes. If you play the game with the actual cards, you don't bother moving the rows around. wink

Play in order of lowest card first:

Aqua 63
AJ 78
Argus 79
Weez 85*2

Three of the players scrabble not to first to bust. Aqua loses this contest and takes row 4 for 9 points. sad AJ ans Argus gratefully pile on behind. wink

Weez however had the ideal card for that one free spot and closes off row 2, also making it the last choice for a row bust! grin

Play in order of lowest card first:

Argus 50*3
Aqua 53
AJ 57
Weez 62

Again, players are just trying not to be first.. understandably. wink But someone has to be. And it is... drumroll... Argus!

This probably surprises Aqua the most as Argus swipes the 3 points that Aqua had expected! grin Everyone else follows on, mostly with relief. smile

Play in order of lowest card first:

Weez 40*3
Aqua 44*5
AJ 52
Argus 96

And Aqua escapes again! wink Weez steps forward this time.. as if she had any choice! She takes row 1 for 6 points. And almost everyone follows on.

That is except for Argus who has unfortunately been left with a high card.. the 96.. and is forced to bust row 3 for 11 points. eek


RESULTS END OF ROUND 3

Aqua = 17 points grin (11 points this round)
Weez = 30 points (16 points this round)
AJ = 39 points sad (7 points this round)
Argus = 40 points sob (14 points this round)

This part is a repeat of the previous turn, although it looks like you put the actual cards in the next turn's status.
