Definitely unusual about Paul and the letters. Phobia was a vg spot given that awful selection-only managed a 4 myself. Nevertheless, this is a good game on the letters front by both players.

Alternative for Ronud 6: ((100 + 6 + 7) x 3) - (9 - 8)

Wow that was a close shave for Paul again! If Matthew had his method right in Round 3 it would be 80 - 79 at the end of Round 14 but on all accounts since Paul buzzed in he would have lost anyway.

Let's see if he can become the 5th Octochamp or by some unlucky twist of fate end up like Dougie...just think positive!

Personally do not think Paul is a worthy finalist, ability wise as seeds 7 and 8 who sit below him are better all rounders, but he definitely deserves to be there if it was based down to Mr Nice Guy :)

This happens a lot when I'm playing contestants at home. I'm doing well against them, and then I encounter a round that I find a bit difficult, and they choose that one round to get a great spot, denying me points!
