$200 exacta
Let's not forget he had a big time losing weekend until he went all in on Wise Dan. Then parlayed almost all of it on Fort Larned, for a remarkable comeback!
The attitude in the room most of the weekend was that Helmers was going to be near impossible to catch. Helmers got too conservative with betting the Classic and got caught. (2K to win on FL)
My make or break horse for the weekend was The Lumber Guy.
It didn't work out and I was thankful just to cash decent on Fort Larned, to bring home about half of my starting bankroll.
It was my first time playing in the BCBC.
The 2 day format lends itself to being really conservative early, which I wasn't.
I had a blast though and, look forward to playing in it again next year.
