  Penguincw: Yah.That reminds me of in the chessbookie game of how I'm doing.At first,I was rocketing from 1036 chessbucks to 1093 chessbucks (kind of small compared to your wagering) and now I'm parachuting down.
Mar-18-11  technical draw: Big payday for me. Picked up 5,000 cbs. Also I jumped from 298th place to around 20 something. A couple more days like today and I can get on the leader board.

Yah.Pretty soon,we'll see your name in "lights".

Mar-18-11  wordfunph: <TD> same story with you, i collected my biggest paycheque ever --- +$7,051

simply no secret --- wins with black by GMs Grischuk and Gelfand did it.

last 5 grueling rounds, good luck to <all>..

Mar-19-11  technical draw: Well I jumped from bottom dweller to 23rd in one day. (that's about 400 places). Since I started out with 1,000 and have upped it 350% that means that if I had started out with 10,000 I would be in first place with 45,000. (and if my aunt had wheels she would be a bicycle).

  moronovich: Or if your name was 50 cents ;)

Or TD means Tousand of Dollars!
Or Dimes !?

Mar-19-11  technical draw: Well I picked up only 500 cbs today but that's better than losing. I might even climb a step or two. All in all a regular day at the tracks.
Mar-20-11  hatsis: again, two days in a row, all i saw was "discard all losing tickets". Waaaah, lady lick, where are you?

Good luck today then. :)

Mar-20-11  technical draw: <lady lick, where are you?>

If you call for lady lick you get a licking. Call for lady luck and you'll start winning.
