*I made a mistake with the SF/ARI game grade, I mistakingly graded the game as a push, I did not see the late games with it being Christmas Eve, and when I looked at the scores I thought the final read 30-26, instead of 26-20...it is now corrected.

Wow! That is a huge difference between 1st and 2nd! Journey had better hope that he doesnt have a 1-3 or 0-4 week next week! But I think that is virtually impossible for him to do. The good thing for him is that he can go 2-2 and be only beat by 1 person ifffffffff that person goes 4-0. I wouldnt mind a piece of 4th or 5th if I have a good week

The prize money was voted on by anyone who was involved in the contest, if you remember correctly...I was one of the ones pushing for 5-6 places so more could be paid...not a top heavy, winner take all first prize....I think with this many people playing, we should award that many.

This has been a very competetive field, one of the more competetive contests I have seen, and with one week left ANYTHING can still happen...2nd place in particular is wide open.

i prefer the contests end in week 16 due to many of last week's games not meaning anything...but we'll see what happens...and journey i made a last second change from stl to indy or things would be VERY interesting right now....

I guess next yr we could cut it off after week 16, we'll run that by the members next yr.

The Rams game was fortunate, after they missed the FG, I figured i was done...not sure if you watched it but that game had some serious twists and turns in it....Same with Chicago and Buffalo gms, those swings impacted the sgtandings greatly as many had either or...as well as Seattle coming back late ....what a year, as usual.

 

[Journeyman]

Mia/Jets game tonight is still very important, PO69, BC Eagle and Try Try Try all need this one.

 

[trytrytry]

that Jets/Mia Game is just huge for me tonight. Ive got nothing on it and hope its a MErry christmas present! those payoffs are awesome.

 

[PO69]

That Jets was HUGE for me for other reasons as well. I won the EOG King of The Hill football contest today as well. But this shit pays much more!

I need a 4-0 week next week and a little help to win more in this contest. There could be a HUGE tie for 3rd or 4th. If I go 3-1 and somehow the other 3 guys at 6.3 go 2-2, then we will ALL be tied at 6.1.


MY ONLY chance to catch Journeyman would need me to go 4-0, then I would need ALOT OF help! I would need Journey to go 1-3 or 0-4. Then of course I would need everyone else to have bad weeks. That wont happen, so I am aiming for a 3rd or 4th place finish with a good week

Thanks. I was really wondering what scenarios were necessary to help you out this week and now you've cleared that up for me.

 

[PO69]

I am always here to please you Joey. You need any poker tips while we are at it?

 

[joeyfitzclick]

Yes please Doyle.

I was wondering if there is an advantage to playing on a red felt table versus the standard green. Its a real canundrum so I would appreciate input from a poker expert like yourself.

Thanks in advance.

if someone emails saturday's plays, will everyone see them posted at gametime....

 

[Journeyman]

if someone emails saturday's plays, will everyone see them posted at gametime....

Just email Saturdays play only and yes it will be posted right at game time 8 pm Saturday.

All plays will be made available prior to starting...this is to prevent anyone from unfairly copying someone who is ahead of them just to stay ahead...it has happened in the past .

Good luck to all those in the Hunt, anybody thinking of hedging? I'm sure there are opportunities.
