Musical NOTEs come to mind which have to be played on the right beat (rythm)
Same logic would apply for DANCE
POUNDing someone/something has connections to a beat/beating
In WAR I have to beat my opponent

From strongest to weakest:

DANCE to the beat
Beat on someone by POUNDing them
Music is putting NOTEs to a beat
Beat the drums of WAR
CASINOs probably have some banging beats
If your heart stops beating, you're gonna need an AMBULANCE


After reading spoilers:
Somehow missed the obvious meaning of beat as "triumph over". That gives us:
Beat the house at the CASINO
Beat the enemy in WAR
Beat the DISEASE
Beat the STOCK market

Still like DANCE -> POUND -> WAR -> NOTE to start.

You would DANCE to a beat of musical NOTES.
To beat is to POUND.

You would beat things (e.g. drums) with your PALM.
In WAR you beat your enemy, or are beaten.
At a CASINO one might beat the house.

One could beat a DISEASE?

Everyone has said DANCE, so I'll start with:

Point to DANCE
Past Games: PB51  -  PB55  -  PB56  -  PB58 (Tarkeel's game)  - PB59  -  PB60  -  PB64  -  PB66  -  PB68 (Miguelito's game)     Current Games: None (for now...)

Let's try another: (after this I'll wait for the group)

Point to POUND
Past Games: PB51  -  PB55  -  PB56  -  PB58 (Tarkeel's game)  - PB59  -  PB60  -  PB64  -  PB66  -  PB68 (Miguelito's game)     Current Games: None (for now...)

I'd prefer NOTE > DISEASE > WAR > CASINO for the rest.
Playing: PB74
Played: PB58 - PB59 - PB62 - PB66 - PB67
Dedlurked: PB56 (Amicalola) - PB72 (Greenline)
Maps: PB60 - PB61 - PB63 - PB68 - PB70 - PB73 - PB76

I'd also like NOTE next, so I'll point to that. I'm going to bed soon, so assuming it's right, my next preferences are WAR > CASINO > DISEASE. Have fun Europeans. smile 

Point to NOTE
