69 points, advantage Chugs. Zap with 2 games in hand. Day of reckoning is upon us. Money ball to the nth degree.

Oh hell...I was thinking this was a winner take all tournament until I just went back through. Must have confused it with the survivor pool. Not that it would have changed any of my plays but didn't realize we were playing for money in this round!

Zap...was going to send PM but see you're not set up. Since we're actually playing for money this round and first is a long shot...do you want to chop out the buy-in and pay loser of our matchup $100 to keep contests of this nature something resembling positive EV? I'll wait to put in picks until I hear. If no answer shortly after your picks are in I'll assume no go and we'll play it out.

I care WAY more about the glory than about the prize money, so I don't care either way. No need to hedge for my sake....but if you would like to do that I won't object. Post something to that effect before our first game starts......and (as you say) if no post before the first game goes, we'll play it out. The one thing I DO disagree with you on is that first is a long shot. I don't know about you but I have had James Hat in my cross-hairs for several weeks :)

If you don't care lets do it. The difference between $350 and $450 is nothing, but taking a zero just always stings. Maybe i'm just more used to it from poker...playing hours/days or in this case months and bouncing before the cash just sticks with you. I'm all for paying the bubble. So yeah, loser of this match just PPs the other $100 after everything is final.

As for Mr. Hat...I plan on giving him a run but the odds say he gets one kill shot off first before I can fire three. He was in my crosshairs once and he caught me in the thigh.

Question: What happens if DET-MIN is rained out tonight ?? Is it a push ?? Do I pick 2 games tomorrow ?? If it doesn't go 9 innings is the run line a push ?? Ok....that was more than one question. Anyway hopefully they get the game in but good to know what the various scenarios mean.

With the DET/MIN postponement, the plays by Zapster are obviously "NO ACTION". By rule, those 2 plays could affect the outcome of the match and therefore we will extend the match by a day to allow Zap to submit his make-up games tomorrow. This will push back the start of the FINAL ROUND to Friday, so really, we're right back on the original schedule. Thursday lines to follow...

No issues submitting via IPad, if that's your main question. Copy and pasting is a challenge, though. You have to double-tap the area you are looking to copy and select "copy", then drag with your finger to encompass the full area your looking for. Once copied, double-tap in the area you're looking to paste and select "paste"

Works fine too to just type in, triple check accuracy, and submit.

Lol...my instructions aren't 100% correct, but I think you'll get the gist. You have to "drag to encompass full" THEN select "copy"...it's very sensitive. Just type and triple check is really the easiest.
