Play in order of lowest card first:

Aqua 8
Alduin 47

Weez 51
Argus 79

Aqua goes first again with a low number, playing his 8 to bust row 3 for one point! grin Essentially that removes 4 playable spaces so someone is in trouble.

Alduin, AJ & Weez squeeze onto the new row 3 forcing Argus to bust it for 5 points. Could have been worse rolleyes

AJ goes first and busts row 3 for 8 points sad which signals the end of the game. Everyone except Alduin follow on.

Alduin is now forced to play his 101 and there is a little square lying empty just for him! grin


RESULTS END OF ROUND 4

Argus = 23 points grin
Aqua = 45 points
Alduin = 53 points
Weez = 64 points sad
AJ = 69 points

Congrats to Argus on winning the game. Aqua secured a second place by taking only 2 points this round. And Weez deserves a mention by avoiding ponits altogether and staying in the game. grin
