Play in order of lowest card first:

Weez 1
AJ 8
Aqua 29

Weez plays her 1, guaranteed to earn points. After last round she maes certain it is only 1, taking out round 4 wink

AJ was of the same mind, just a little higher on the new row 2 smile

Aqua plays on row 3 whilst Alduin and Argus add to the new row 4. wink

Play in order of lowest card first:

AJ 9
Weez 11*5
Aqua 45*2
Argus 48
Alduin 49

AJ continues his bid to get rid of his low cards, adding another to row 1. smile

Weez has a lovely card for row 2, doubling the points and leaving just one space for temptation wink

The other three players opt for row 3 though but there is only room for two of them. Aqua and Argus rush the door, squeezing into the warmth whilst Alduin is left out in the cold scoring 6 points! sad

Aqua 55*7

AJ 96

I had thought that row 3 might attract a bust but instead a lot of players.. in fact everyone.. decides to play on it. Quite a tight group fill up the row and AJ, who might have hoped that 1 player might just have played elsewhere rolleyes , busts the row for 15 points!! eek

Play in order of lowest card first:

AJ 35*2
Weez 66*5
Aqua 80*3
Alduin 81
Argus 85*2

Some players were possibly trying for a bust, most trying to avoid it. AJ was trying the hardest and chooses to bust row 4 for 5 points.

Everyone else follow on to create a 13 point row for the last turn eek

Play in order of lowest card first:

Weez 39
Alduin 52
Argus 65*2
Aqua 79
AJ 104

Weez goes first this time taking row 3 for just 5 points!

Almost everyone follows on but AJ had cleverly cleared row 4 to allow him to safely play his 104! grin

And it is the end of the game!

RESULTS END OF ROUND 4

Argus = 36 points grin (5 points this round)
Aqua = 47 points wink (5 points this round)
Alduin = 62 points (7 points this round)
Weez = 65 points (18 points this round)
AJ = 82 points sob (20 points this round)

Argus and Aqua battled royally for first place, Argus gaining it by a fat whisker! grin
AJ finished the game in style scoring 82!
