CARL. These money builder bankroll contests are tough. Even at $200.00 a pop. $500.00 a pop worse. And everyone playin 2 entries. Same guys playin every tourney. And I knows alot of them. Most bust on both. They also play in $1,000 and $5,000. They got money to burn and don't care if they lose. And alot travel to tourneys thru-out USA and on-line. Vegas their goal and one has to wonder how much they blow every year tryin to get there and also qualifyin twice. I saw one name though that I found interestin. Last name JAYNE. Not sure,but I'M guessing from JAYNE STABLES in West Chicago and a nephew of the notorious famous ganster,SILAS JAYNE. The most feared guy in CHICAGOLAND in his day. The CHICAGO MOB would not even fuc with HIM. They steered clear of the crazy murderin PHYSCHO.

In these tourneys,you have to study all tracks startin 2 days before. And as I see it you need to hit keyin EXACTAS or TRI-KEYS for bigger plays and then continue doin so ,unless you think you have built a big enough lead. I know the MAVIN (DAVE GRUENFELD) has a different strategy. He just fires his whole amount on 1st or second chalk and if he hits,just continues the process in early bettin. Builds a bankroll early and then may change his bettin. And he will play in $10,000 tourneys with 2 entries doing same. It is why you most often than not see both his entries end at 0. But he has qualified to VEGAS about 15 times. And he has won money there although never the top prize. He got money to burn. Rich parents and he inherit tons. And when these guys make it to VEGAS,that tourney a $2.00 win,place and they no good at that.

Good to see you gave it a shot. Just need to know. Did you not bet full amount of $200.00 to keep some money in pocket or was the minus $1.00 from you bet over the limit with a $1.00 you did not have. What OTB did you play at.
Make sure you play in HAWTHORNES free online tourneys which should start in a few weeks. Pays up to 15 places for free $500.00 entries into same type you just played in. First place sends the winner to VEGAS and 2 $500.00 entries in future tourneys. 2nd to 5th. 2 $500.00 entries. 6th thru 15th. 1 $500.00 entry.
