Unusual to see three players going for a bust in round 1! wink Aqua gets the 1 point and Exeter & Weez shuffle up to join him on row 1. grin

Argus plays as expected but on the new row 3 and AJ plays on a different row 4 than he expected! But all is good. smile

Argus goes first targeting row 2 for a bust. Two points isn't too damaging! smile

Weez goes next and as planned slips into the last spot of the new row 2, more than doubling the points. wink

Between the two of them they have stitched up Exeter good and proper. Not only did Argus snatch his row but then Weez poisoned the row that he falls onto. 9 points ouch! sad Aqua emits a small sigh of relief and follows on. smile

AJ has a canny move and fills up row 3 grin

Well there were more seats than players once the music stopped so at least one person was in trouble! wink

Exeter goes first busting row 4 for 3 points. That might mix things up a bit! wink Argus follows on

AJ busts the new row 2 as a result, though he is probably not too surprised. smile He takes 5 points.

Weez manages to sneak onto the new row 2 and Aqua, deciding to take the plunge now, takes 7 points for busting the new row 4! sad

Tons of room! grin

With those tempting 1 pointers, Exeter decides that a bust is his preferred option. He selects row 2 for the one point! smile

This has a dramatic effect on Argus, unintended or otherwise, as his play now busts the new row 2 for 7 points! Not great but he can probably afford it! wink

The other three play high, Aqua on the new row 2 and AJ & Weez on row 3. This has little effect as there are lots of spaces but they do remove any one point rows. grin

Inspired by Weez's huge leap, Exeter follows suit also busting row 2 for two points! wink Almost everyone follows on. smile

However Argus is forced now onto the new row 2 and has to swallow 8 points all by himself! sad There is a sweetener to this bitter pill though as he still wins the game!! grin

RESULTS END OF ROUND 4

Argus = 40 points grin (17 points this round)
Weez = 48 points smile (2 points this round)
AJ = 53 points (11 points this round)
Exeter = 75 points sad (15 points this round)
