Play in order of lowest card first:AJ 1 Aqua 6 Weez 14 Exeter 25*2 Argus 102 Interesting topsy turvey first round. Argus often plays low, AJ always high! Not this time! AJ goes first, taking the one point row 3 and probably hoping to catch some high card players. Again not this time! Aqua follows him. Weez sees a great opportunity on the new second row and Exeter on the new third row. They both take 'em! So a really good spread of options left Next choices via PM please. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,218 Likes: 55 Wizop Administrator | OP Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,218 Likes: 55 | Round 3 Turn 2 TURN START POSITION

Play in order of lowest card first:Argus 9 Aqua 12 Exeter 80*3 AJ 87 Weez 90*3 Argus and Aqua both have the same idea and head for the same place. Fortunately there is a space there for each of them, Argus first whilst Aqua takes the last slot filling row 1. Everyone else heads for the two spaces on row 3, however this time there are three players and two spaces and we all know three into two don't go! Exeter and AJ get away with it whilst Weez cops for 12 points! Ouch! Weez is not having a good game Next choices via PM please. | | | | Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,218 Likes: 55 Wizop Administrator | OP Wizop Administrator Joined: May 2000 Posts: 76,218 Likes: 55 | Round 3 Turn 4 TURN START POSITION

Play in order of lowest card first:Aqua 13 Exeter 81 Argus 83 AJ 84 Weez 92 Aqua doesn't like the lay of the board and decides his best course of action might be to take the 5 point bust in the interests of avoiding a worse fate! And so his 13 busts row 1 as he expected. Everyone else plays high, three of whom land on row 2. The trick here is not to be second. That honour falls to Argus as he watches Exeter just sneak into that last spot ahead of him and AJ happily waves him on to take the 9 points. Maybe Aqua had a good strategy? Weez has a better option though as her 92 slips softly onto the third row! Plenty of spaces or low bust options now!

Play in order of lowest card first:Argus 20*3 AJ 28 Aqua 30*3 Exeter 65*2 Weez 93 That empty first row is beckoning hard and everyone's heads swivel towards it.. well fortunately everyone's except for Weez's as there is only room for four who pile on to fill the row and take it into double figures! Weez however has her own agenda, following the plan she set up in the last two rounds as she slips onto row 3!

Play in order of lowest card first:Exeter 32 Aqua 34 Argus 43 AJ 61 Weez 94 With no room for cards in the bottom half of the draw, most folk are thinking about busting!Exeter has serious intent though, playing his 32 to take row 2 for 2 points! Relieved, Aqua, Argus & AJ pile on behind him! Weez however is playing her own game on row 3, a 94 this time. Where is she getting these cards?

Play in order of lowest card first:Weez 41 Exeter 51 AJ 53 Argus 54 Aqua 64 Quite a close grouping this time, almost every playing a card with the potential to bust! And Weez takes that option first, striding boldly forward - maybe tired of playing by herself - and busts row 1 for 4 points. Not too bad! Everyone else follows the leader, filling row 1.

Play in order of lowest card first:Weez 24 Exeter 49 AJ 50*3 Aqua 56 Argus 60*3 Again everyone is playing a game and with the potential to bust. But I do understand row 2 avoidance! Weez goes first again but this time she elects to bust row 4! Makes no difference she takes 5 points and everyone piles on behind her again. Next two turns might prove interesting..

Play in order of lowest card first:AJ 40*3 Exeter 45*2 Aqua 46 Weez 70*3 Argus 78 AJ goes first and is forced to bust a row. Fortunately row 2 with its meagre 5 points beckons him over. Exeter and Aqua gratefully follow him onto the new row 1. Now Weez & Argus both play high. Weez goes first and as she foresaw has to bust the 10 point row! Argus however is gleeful as he dances after her onto that row.

Play in order of lowest card first:Exeter 44*5 AJ 66*5 Aqua 67 Argus 68 Weez 73 Exeter's turn to step up to the plate. Row 3 is quite a nice bust, just 4 points and so he takes it. AJ isn't so lucky. He has to bust new row 3 for 9 points! Everyone is queuing tightly behind him to file into a safe spot! RESULTS END OF ROUND 3Argus = 32 point (9 points this round) AJ = 33 points (15 points this round) Aqua = 35 points (5 points this round) Exeter = 39 points (6 points this round) Weez = 63 points (31 points this round!!) Argus is leading! Well done! AJ, Aqua and Exeter are still smiling, in with a chance but poor Weez, not a good round, is on the brink of collapse! | | | | Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,179 Likes: 10 Maris Imperium Member | Maris Imperium Member Joined: Nov 2004 Posts: 10,179 Likes: 10 | Whew!
