Trade red 2 with Jokipakka

[GirlySports]

Jokkipakka gives a purple 4 to mrkajz.

Both hands are complete so I will reveal.

mrkajz has 6 6 5 4

squiggs has 6 4 3 2

squiggs made a quattro while mrkajz failed to.

Squiggs wins Game 2, series is tied 1-1

[GirlySports]

mrk, when you flip the 5, you gotta get rid of that red 2! :P

and you were screwed by Hamilton!

[mrkajz44]

Squiggs - you wiped the floor with me on that one. Extremely well played.

I got caught up thinking my extra trade could force you to take a zero, but I messed it all up and you took full advantage.

[mrkajz44]

If I had traded with Engelland instead of Hamilton, would I have got my quatro then?

It was squiggs placing the zero in my way that really messed me up. Not sure there was an optimal way to get out of that one other than just getting lucky?

Thanks. Having that 0 come out when it did made my life a little easier.

[GirlySports]

you could have kept the 0, that makes a quattro too.

if you had traded with engelland he would have given you the purple 2 he's showing but then jokipakka is screwed, he has to give you a green 5

so no

extra trade with Gio would have given you the perfect 6 5 4 3 quattro (he had the red 3)

[GirlySports]

so it's 1-1, so much for advantages, both players with advantage lost :P

[mrkajz44]

Yeah, when I got down to that point I figured it was just luck if I got what I needed. And I did consider holding on to the 0, but the way squiggs played the end I figured he had at least 15. I guess 6,5,4,0 would have beat that now that I think about it, but I figured ditching the 0 was my best chance.

[GirlySports]

are you guys available for this afternoon or tonight for Game 3?

I need a bit of time to set it up. I think you guys will like it

[squiggs96]

Do I need to be at the computer continuously? I'm free this evening, but might have a meeting this afternoon.

[mrkajz44]

All depends on how long you need. I will probably have an hour to 1.5 hours this evening

[GirlySports]

no, it's turn based.

and you don't really need me that much. Let me post it in about 30 minutes. I need to heat up lunch.
