Right now, I'm trying to finish out the Survival at the Shore at Monmouth Park. The contest has two days left and I'm still playing [along with about 465 out of the original 4400]. I'm in 14th place overall with no chance of catching the leaders. Worse than that, I find myself one winner behind the leader in the most winners category, trying to both pick winners and trying to figure out which contender the leader won't pick. The first isn't too grueling, but the latter is mind bending.

Still, 14th out of 4400 is very good and should give you confidence for future play.
