Four game series

That's the new trend now...that I'm going to start.

Gone to the past are those 3 game bowling series. The trend should be 4 games. Then I'll have a chance.

Tonight's weekly bowl expanded to 4 games again because one of the members showed up halfway through game #2. No biggie. I lost the first game 191-151 anyway. Usually playing a dollar a game, we agreed to treat that as a head to head matchup for a free game and not count it towards the usual series score. This put me down a little in the short term, but reset the score for the series wager.

A third player is apparently all I needed to motivate to bowl better.
I took the 2nd game 181-i dunno what.
Then, the third game was a bit of a depressed game. My 152 took it from everyone.
Interestingly enough, that 3 game series would have taken the series, but oh well.

Finally...game #4.
Bowler 1 (JW): 8/ 7/ open
Me: 9/ 7/ X
Bowler 3 (DY): 7/ 7/ open

Good for me. I had to make up 12 against DY and JW had to give me 7 point.
Alas for me the 4th frame was a:
JW: X
M: 8s1
DY: X
Back in it for them.

However, I wasn't too worried. I'd had several good 2nd halfs to my earlier games, so I was hopeful this would be another chance.

Frame 5:
X (cross-over/brooklyn style)
Frame 6:
X (cross-over/brooklyn style)
Frame 7:
X (cross-over/brooklyn style)
Frame 8:
X (cross-over/brooklyn style)
Frame 9:
X (cross-over/brooklyn style)
Frame 10:
X (cross-over/brooklyn style) 1 more X to break my all time high of 234.
7 (ugh. Couldn't cross over. I nailed the head pin head on.)
1

Final tally: 230 (I lost track of my opponents...heh)

New 2nd best mark! Go 4 game series!
