You math is crazy wrong.  I believe it is when payouts are more than 5k, so I bet $2500 each to win a total of less than $5k.

You guys actually believe a guy that has his whole life on the line would take time out of his emotional hell which is the game to post on covers?

There is no way in hell he is replying to posts calmly while risking everything he owns incl. savings.

You think I'm calm....why?  Because I'm not using all caps or a whole bunch of exclamation points?  I'm shivering because of the adrenaline/fear.

Where exactly are you posting from , surely you would be at a big book with an atmosphere having a few drinks , not in your hotel room.Yet you posting back almost instantly

Well, I heard it was $5k total payout or higher, so I didn't want to take any chances.  For those who actually care, i bet just under $26k.  Not a lot for some, but everything for me.

I think you haven't bet what you claim you have because you wouldn't be posting here right now. Any normal non psychopath would be pacing up and down the hotel room with a bottle of whisky in hand if the current situation you are in is true.

I already said I'm in my hotel room.  Don't feel like drinking or crying in front of people.
