Aqua 75*2
AJ 81
Argus 84

Weez is convinced her best move is a bust and she takes out row 2 for 3 points!

That leaves everyone else to fight over the 11 point new row 2!

And as he suspected, Aqua's 75*2 is just not high enough. He claims the row and the 11 points!

AJ & Argus follow on!

It is Aqua's turn to bust and he selects row 3 for 5 points. Could be worse

Weez follows on.

Argus squeezes into the last spot on the new row 2.

Possibly expected, AJ is now forced to bust the 11 point row 3. Ouch!

RESULTS END OF ROUND 2

Argus = 15 points

(0 points this round)
Aqua = 22 points (17 points this round)
Weez = 26 points

(24 points this round)
AJ = 34 points

(12 points this round)

Such a painful round.

Yes for 3 of you!
