Play in order of lowest card first:

Argus 16
AJ 17
Aqua 20*3
Alduin 23
Weez 28

Unsuprisingly everyone plays low! The trick here is not to be fourth. Argus, AJ and Aqua rush for row 1, Aqua closing the door on Aduin forcing him to bust row 1 for 7 points! sad

Weez looks around cautiously fear then jumps in behind Alduin.

Very little change from last round except the end number on row 1 is quite a bit higher smile
