No, it pretty much ended the game, as it stopped me getting 2, potentially 3, objectives in that phase - instead I got none (whereas Mike scored two, one of which possibly I would have stopped) - the 3rd phase was just seeing how close I could make the loss.
I know it's a game of skill and luck, but at the moment the luck part is totally absent for me, and I've still to get beyond basic on the skill level, and it's killing the enjoyment for me.
And no, I can't walk away, as I'm looking for a game to replace BB tournaments.
