Room Example 3

 

Player 1 has a Carry of Nines.*
Player 2 has a Carry of Jacks.

Player 1 also has a Tears, 9-High in Clubs.
The Tears will not count because the 9 of Clubs is used to form the Carry of Nines.
A card can only be used once to form Room, NOT multiple times.
 
* Player 2's Carry of Jacks is worth than Player 1's Carry of Nines.
Player 1's Carry of Nines will not count.

Players 1 & 3 have 0 points in Room
Players 2 & 4 have 200 points in Room

   Round Score: 162 + 200 = 362 points

 Players 1 & 3
are immediately Down before the Round even begins! 
This is a rare occasion when a team can go Down without playing a single Lift in the Round. 
Player 2's Carry of Jacks (200 points) is already more than half (181 points) of the Round's points . 
Players 1 & 3 are Down; Players 2 & 4 get 360 points for the Round.
