Weez chooses to bust for a point, taking out Row 2. That puts Gyspy and Alduin on the new Row 2. Argus increments row 3 and AJ closes out Row 4, making this a 3-row game.

Order of Play:

  • Argus - 5
  • Weez - 15
  • Alduin - 30


The single digit row attracts more single digit plays, starting with AJ swapping out the 3 for a 2 at the price of one point.

Gypsy and Argus fill the second and third spots on that row as they expected, and Weez adds some more points with room for one more.

Alduin leaves space for one on Row 2.

Three spots remain, with 5 players. Someone's taking some points next trick... smile

  • Weez - 92


Alduin figures a 5-point bust is better than risking more points and swipes Row 3.

Argus sneaks into the last spot on the new Row 2.

And everyone else lands on the new Row 3, which is slightly more expensive than the old one. AJ sneaks into the last spot, leaving Gypsy and Weez to fight over the back-of-the-queue spot. Gypsy crosses her fingers but it's not enough, and she collects 7 points.

Nobody wants to take Row 2.

Gypsy crosses her fingers tighter and it works, as AJ snags those 7 points.

Weez, Alduin, and Argus conspire to fill up Row 3. whisper

With lots of space on the board, everyone rushes to fill it up. AJ, Gypsy, and Weez head for Row 1 while Argus and Alduin head to Row 2.

No points this turn, but that moment of respite won't last.

AJ is willing to risk points to play low on Row 1 and is successful as everyone else goes high. Argus doesn't go high enough and collects 10 points.

It's walk-down time, but Alduin doesn't get the memo. He takes 5 points from Row 3.

Scores for this hand:

Weez 1 grin
Gypsy 7 smile
AJ 8 smile
Alduin 20 sad
Argus 22 eek


Final scores for this game:

Gypsy 19 grin
Weez 42 smile
AJ 64 blank
Alduin 66 sad
Argus 69 eek
