Weez however decides it is time to start ditching high cards. Might become a trend! Next choices via PM

 -----------------------------------

Play in order of lowest card first:

AJ 56
Argus 61
Aqua 74
Weez 81

Every plays on row three.. and four into three doesn't go!

And the last player is Weez who takes the row for 7!

Argus's cap told him that busting a row was the best option and there is a one point row available. He agrees and busts row 4! Other caps recommend squeezing into the last spot on the old row 2. AJ's cap survives as he lands in it, whereas Weez's cap is thrown to the back of the cupboard as she takes 6 points. Should have ignored the cap and gone with her own instincts! Aqua follows on! More spaces now! Next choices via PM
