This is how it’s played. It sucks for awhile as we give Andrea our money, then it’s over.

Of course. You let her have the oranges.

Give a good player the orange monopoly and it’s over. Especially since nobody else has anything of value except for the picture-taker who presumably holds the yellows but hasn’t built enough housing to make them worth it. (Do whatever it takes to get at least three houses on each property.)

That said, it’s an odd move that she chose to split her resources and spend so much money building up the greens (a move that takes a lot of cash before it pays off and often isn’t worth doing) when the oranges don’t have hotels yet.

I played Monopoly a lot in my adolescence.
