Play in order of lowest card first:

Argus 3
Aqua 4
Weez 12
Alduin 101
AJ 104

A tale of two halves with half the players playing very low, the other half extremely high! grin

So Argus and Aqua make the most of the opportunity to get rid of low cards safely. wink Whilst Weez slips almost unnoticed onto row 2

Alduin and AJ jostle to claim the last spot on row 4. Alduin wins and AJ takes 13 points! eek
