You qualified with $166, I would have gotten that easily today, DAMN IT. I would have had Recapturetheglory and Tale of Ekati, per my lower thread.

Congrats Paul, that is awesome.

i am going to give the september contest a run again...

Those were great picks. However, with a $2WP format, Recapturetheglory and Tale of Ekati would have returned a combined $65.70 (They payed $73.70 and cost $4 each to bet at $2WP). To get to $166 is still not so easy.

Again, you did a great job Paul.. I would think a very small percentage played Recapturetheglory to win.

It was $2WP, I thought it was $5WP, like last year

Then yeah, I wouldn't have had a shot then because $166 is REALLY good, for that type format....
