No one wants to get stuck high, so everyone heads for Row 4, filling it.

Want to try that again, everyone? smile

Everyone else plays high, trying to avoid being second on Row 2, but AJ misses out by a single pip, taking 9 points. Weez and Gypsy follow along.

AJ decides to take 4 more points, claiming the old Row 2 to bring his two-turn total to an unlucky 13 and removing the illusion of 2 open spots.

Nobody else was headed for those open spots anyway, with everyone else landing on the new Row 2. Argus lands first and claims 5 points.

  • Argus - 3
  • Gypsy - 13
  • Weez - 55


Gypsy was eager to bust Row 1 for 2 points, but Argus edged ahead of her with his VIP pass.

Not to be outdone, AJ produced his "front of the line" pass and claimed the points.

Weez still ends up safely as the high card on Row 1 where she intended, with a very different landscape below her.

Order of Play:
  • Weez - 16
  • AJ - 27
  • Argus - 30
  • Gypsy - 35


Weez is up again with her choice of 3-point rows. Since it doesn't matter in the outcome, I'll arbitrarily pick the lower one. Everyone else follows along!

Final scores this hand:

Argus 5
Gypsy 5
AJ 15
Weez 16

Final scores for Game 36:
Gypsy 16
AJ 35
Weez 52
Argus 67

Congrats Gypsy!
