2nd numbers game; 75, 8, 4, 7, 10, 4 - target 492

(75 - 10) x 8 = 520; 520 - (4 x 7) = 492

TROUPED is not in. I had two DC beaters in round 13 - PONIARDS and PADRINOS. Again, a biscuit for anyone doing a max game today - I missed the 6 from round 1 (obscure as heck) and 945 (got out of time the same way as Carol got late).

:shock: I beat Kirk on a numbers game, I beat Kirk on a numbers game, ner ner ne ner ner :)

Sorry Kirk, I'm only boasting because it's v v rare :) Didn't get the max game anyway; I missed PONDOK and EXCITERS.

Again good stuff from Kai, he's so calm on these pressure numbers rounds late in the game, he keeps pulling them out of the bag. He's beaten a few half-decent opponents now - I mean the people he's played have hardly been pushovers, and he keeps winning. Loving his enthusiasm as well... he obviously loves being there and it's great to see. He (along with Junaid) has really livened up what had been a bit of a slow-burner of a series, rather like Beth Sutton did in series 49.

I've only watched one of his games and I beat him so no need for me to feel inadequate for losing to an 11-year-old. :mrgreen:

Yet again, beaten by Kai on a crucial conundrum. That's three out of his four games. But I'm not disheartened, far from it; it's better than my norm. :)

Got the 945 - and within the 30 secs.

I beat him easily on his first game, but it was all downhill from there :( . The last 3 games have been crucial conundrums, won 1, lost 2!
Damn, that boy is good!!

I agree Kai has improved in leaps and bounds - I beat him the first two days but it has gone downhill since then

Good lad!
