Aqua goes first and busts row 2 for 1 point! smile Argus had the same idea but was late to the party. He follows on smile

Everyone else finds a row particularly well suited to their cards; Weez on row 2, Exeter or row 3 and AJ on row 4 grin

Play in order of lowest card first:

Weez steps bravely into the breach but it is fine as she has a safe place to go on row 1! grin Aqua follows her to her safe place. Still room for one more. wink

Eventually those high cards were going to be played! Argus plays a sneaky card filling up row 4. grin That is unfortunate for Exeter who wanders along next but it is only 5 points, could be worse! smile AJ follows on with a soft sigh of relief. wink

Play in order of lowest card first:

AJ 75*2
Exeter 81
Argus 86
Aqua 90*3
Weez 93

When I saw all these high numbers I was sure there would be a bust! But no! I underestimated all of you! grin

There is room for two of you on row three and AJ & Exeter play there. wink

That leaves three spaces on row 3 for Argus, Aqua and Weez. grin Collective breaths can now be let go!

Next round looks like fun though!

Play in order of lowest card first:

Exeter 9

Exeter prefers a bust of his choice and so takes out row 1 for 6 points. wink Aqua happily follows on. smile

Three people now aim for that last space on row 2, though to be fair Aj wasn't aiming, more like avoiding! grin So Argus jumps into it and Weez has nowhere to go. Truthfully she was nervous about this play and with good reason as takes 9 points! eek AJ follows on with a smug smile. weg

AJ 47
Exeter 82

Well almost everyone plays low which is not a surprise! wink Trick here is not be be fourth. So Aqus, Weez & Argus make it safely onto row 1 which AJ then busts for 6 points sad.

I think Exeter might not have noticed that row 3 ended in 81 and thought himself safe on row 2. Shakes head, not so unfortunately. He bust row 3 for 7 points! eek

Some room now smile

Exeter likes those 1 point bust options, taking another with row 2. grin

AJ, Aqua & Argus - the 3 A's - conspire together to fill up the new row 2 to 11 points to catch Weez! lurk

However Weez has other plans of her own and plays a high card on row 4, bowing eventually to inevitability. But 12 points! Ouch! eek

Play in order of lowest card first:

Exeter 41
Argus 42
AJ 45*2
Aqua 60*3
Weez 104

And Exeter's small sacrifice last turn has saved everyone this round! angel

He create a row with room for everyone except Weez but also with a low enough card that Weez's 103 would not be busted, so she is safe too!

Quite rare to have no busts on the last round! grin

RESULTS END OF ROUND 2

Argus = 0 points ✨ grin (Still no points!!)
Aqua = 12 points smile (2 points this round)
AJ = 24 points (6 points this round)
Exeter = 29 points (20 points this round)
Weez = 41 points sad (27 points this round)
