Funny old game this is turning out to be! At least we have some low busts but does anyone have any low cards left?

Aqua is in first place again but with a lovely 1 point bust in his sights.

He takes out row 3

Weez is next with a safe play on the new row 2.

Argus & AJ both head for row 4 having run out of avoidance strategies. Argus more than repays the favour of the previous round jumping in and taking the 13 points,

whilst AJ saunters after.

RESULTS END OF ROUND 1

Weez = 1 point

Aqua = 14 points

Argus =21 points
AJ = 29 points
