Row 1 is completely ignored as Alduin claims a spot on Row 2 and AJ bumps the high card on Row 3. everyone else nearly fills Row 4 with room for exactly one card if anyone has it. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 |

Weez busts Row 1 by a single pip for a point, which doesn't affect Gypsy who lands on the second spot on Row 1 as planned. Alduin increments Row 2, while AJ and Argus file onto Row 3. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 |

Alduin and Weez think 2 points is worth dumping a low card, and Alduin claims them, while Gypsy falls into the third spot on Row 1 as planned, just with different cards under her. Argus and AJ fill out Row 2, leaving a nice package of points ready for anyone with a card between 64 and 99. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 |

AJ is the only one with a guaranteed safe play on Row 1 and heads there, while everyone else risks a 4-point bust with varying degrees of certainty. Argus is the most certain one. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 |

Weez is the lowest of three players willing to bust, taking 4 points and starting the process of replacing the four cards there with four new cards. AJ slips into the last spot on Row 2 while nobody's looking. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 |

Options are slim, and a few different strategies were tried, with mixed results. Gypsy decided a guaranteed 8 points was better than risking 9+? or 13, and made an intentional bust of Row 4. Argus and AJ both tried for the one spot on Row 1, with Argus winning and AJ taking 10 points for his gamble. And on the high end of the board, Weez manages to squeeze behind Alduin to force him to claim the old Row 3's 13 points.

Gypsy has to take points with her 1 at some point and decides now is as good a time as any, swiping Row 2 for 3 points. This leaves Argus, AJ, and Weez on the new Row 2 while Alduin waves from Row 4. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 |

AJ and Argus slide easily onto Row 1. Weez, Alduin, and Gypsy all try to not bust Row 3, but Weez is unfortunately first in line for the 9 points. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 |

Everyone plays on Row 2, with 11 points plus the first card. AJ gambles that the 29 won't undercut him and wins that bet, upping the tally to 14 just in time for Weez to swoop in as second-in-line. She may have been wanting to poison the row for those behind her but instead ends up on the receiving end of those 14 points while the other three players follow along behind. | | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 Maris Imperium Moderator | | OP Maris Imperium Moderator Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 12,666 Likes: 23 |

And now everyone crowds onto Row 1, where being third is where you don't want to be. And unfortunately Weez completes a hat trick of point-taking, with 8 points contributing to a total of 31 in the last three turns. Fortunately for Weez, that ends the game and she'll get to start over at 0 in Game 41.
