The people who have small stacks know that it's now or never, and just waiting to get the opportunity to go "all in". I'm either going to finish near the top or be flat broke. There's nothing to gain from coming in 11th. Sep-11-14    Chessgames Bookie: <Sneaky: This is a lot like a poker tournament.

TIME FOR DA GRENEK Sep-12-14    Sneaky: Oh, I forgot that the top 12 are qualifiers this leg! OK cool, that makes being #16 not so far out of the money. As they say in poker, "I'm just waiting to make my move." Sep-12-14    centralfiles: I lost my pants today :( Sep-12-14    centralfiles: now i have extended my losses to nearly 2000 chessbucks Sep-12-14    dakgootje: I'm sure Chnebelgrind is still mighty jealous of your net worth - given that he currently stands at -11.8k ;) Sep-13-14    wordfunph: L E A D E R B O A R D updated Sat Sep 13, 17:39 User Net Worth (1) centralfiles 11,488 (2) dakgootje 11,476 truly a dogfight, watch out for the exciting finish. goodluck central and dakkie.. Sep-13-14    centralfiles: We seem to move up and down in tandem, though not by the same margins. Which makes sense since were both trying to take advantage of good odds. In this case betting against draws, looks like we were wrong :). Sep-13-14    centralfiles: i have now extended my losses to a full 2500 cb Sep-13-14    centralfiles: <In this case betting against draws, looks like we were wrong :).> see Dak's forum :) Sep-14-14    dakgootje: A one-day loss of 2.5k is a bit irritating - but total losses of 2.5k is nothing to worry about ^^ Heh, I was busy with other stuff today, so I totally forgot to bet the 2 games :( Sep-14-14    centralfiles: i left most of my betting for this morning but then forgot about it until after 9am so were in this together :) Sep-14-14    Penguincw: There goes my winning streak. :( Bilbao rd 1: Anand-Ponomariov : Draw [discard ticket] 100 LOSE 6:7 1.85 -- Sep-14-14 Bilbao rd 1: DAILY DOUBLE : Draw-Draw [discard ticket] 100 LOSE 5:4 2.23 -- Sep-14-14 Excluding today, I've been gaining ~1000 cbs over the last week (thanks to the GRENKE Classic). Now, my chances of hitting top 12 are roughly equivalent to the Blue Jays making the postseason: slim, but still worth 2 cbs. ;) Sep-15-14    Sneaky: <Bilbao rd 2: Aronian-Ponomariov : Aronian [cash in ticket] 500 YOU WIN! COLLECT 1215> Watch out you leaderboarders, I'm nipping at your heels now! Sep-15-14    Penguincw: Grr!
