Order of Play:

Weez claims the first point of the new game with her 1, busting Row 4. That causes everyone else to land on the new Row 4.

Order of Play:
  • Gypsy - 8
  • AJ - 15
  • Weez - 57
  • Argus - 64

Gypsy gambles that nobody has the 7, and succeeds in filling Row 1.

AJ walks unopposed onto Row 2, while Weez and Argus add on to Row 3.

In theory, everyone can play next turn without anyone taking points, with a space to spare...

Order of Play:

  • Weez - 104

There are five spots on the board, and players colluded to figure out who would go where.
lurk
Gypsy topped off Row 2, while Argus and AJ squeezed onto Row 3, leaving a fun surprise for anyone with a card higher than 66.... on future rounds, of course. Weez has the highest card and closes off Row 4.

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

There's only one free spot on the board, but unless you have the 63 you're not playing there. On the bright side, the worst case haul is 5 points for any card under 62.

Order of Play:
  • Argus - 28
  • Weez - 44
  • Gypsy - 59
  • AJ - 61


Argus steps bravely forward to collect Row 1's 5 points, while everyone else follows on.

Everyone plays under Row 1's total. Weez is unlucky enough to step forward first, collecting 5 points while everyone else follows behind.

Order of Play:

  • Gypsy - 47
  • AJ - 49

Somewhat of a mini-walkdown is going on. Gypsy and AJ are lucky enough to be at the high end of it, watching the carnage below, while Weez and Argus try to decide whether taking fewer points multiple times is really better than biting the bullet on Row 3 sooner rather than later.

Argus takes the baton back from Weez to collect 6 points, as we enter a fourth round of over-under strategery.

  • Weez - 84

Argus leads the charge for the tactical bust, opting for Row 1's 4 points. Gypsy and AJ follow.

Weez runs out of options and bites the bullet, taking Row 3's 10 points.

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

Order of Play:
  • Gypsy - 19
  • Weez - 68
  • AJ - 83
  • Argus - 94

In her final move choice, Gypsy theorized that someone would bust Row 3, and she turned that prediction true by busting it herself for a point.

That left everyone else landing on the old Row 2. Weez and AJ were headed there anyway, and AJ times it poorly, collecting 9 points while Argus ends up second on Row 3 as expected, just a different Row 3.

Order of Play:
  • AJ - 20
  • Argus - 69
  • Weez - 79
  • Gypsy - 87

And as the last cards come out, AJ finds a wide open Row 1 to place his 20, while the other three players crowd onto Row 2 with space for only two of them. Gypsy is left wtihout a chair as the music stops, collecting 7 points.

Scores at the end of the round - it's a close game!

Gypsy 8
AJ 9
Argus 15
Weez 16
