Play in order of lowest card first:

AJ 6
Argus 21
Weez 31
Aqua 90*3

Some strange cards this game.

And given the low start it is not surprising that most of the players play low. AJ on row 1, Argus on row 2 and Weez on row 3. Aqua plays on row 4 just to keep the cards well spread.

Argus 92

So much room, so much opportunity!

And again there is a fair spread. AJ plays his 22*5 on row 2, see a pattern forming here!

Weez likewise with her 32 on row 3. Aqua, never a conformist also plays on row 3 after Weez, closing out her game!

Whilst Argus joins the majority but on row 4.

Argus was feeling safe until naughty Weez came along and not only squeezed into that last slot just ahead of him but doubled the row score to 10!!

As Weez & Aqua join in the conspiracy by taking up the last 2 slots on the new row 3, just before Argus is forced to bust it for 12 points

Play in order of lowest card first:

Weez 39
Aqua 40*3
AJ 50*3
Argus 59

Same order as last time so Weez is especially lucky that there were 2 one point bust rows. She takes the other one, line 2.

Aqua & AJ follow on!

Argus has probably been expecting this but his 59 has to bust row for 11 points!

RESULTS END OF ROUND 2

Aqua = 8 points

(6 points this round)
Weez = 15 points

(2 points this round)
AJ = 20 points (6 points this round)
Argus = 53 points

(39 points this round)

Aqua is still in the lead, well done!

But Argus deserves our sympathies for an awful round!

I do feel the need to share AJ's cards this last round, lowest I've ever seen and he did well to only get 6 points!
