Man, that was a rough way for Mel & Mike to go out. That mud field got so cold after awhile that they were physically unable to continue doing the task. It was pretty amazing that they would've been willing to brave hypothermia to continue on the race. That is some serious dedication, right there.

Groovy.
Pretty decent week overall, with most players posting modest gains. Unlike previous weeks, there were many fewer perfect wagers, though. On the other hand, there weren't nearly as many huge losses either. Just solid overall.
We did have a couple new players join the game, tvgeek401 and VisionQuest. Welcome back! 
This week's Greatest Gainer Award goes to qwertypie, who climbed 9 ranks this week thanks to a rebuy strategic wagering. Nicely done!
The Perfect Bet Award also goes to qwertypie (3.3x) who leveraged that rebuy into a crazy amazing payout for the week. Also, Scuba Steve (2.2x), newcomer tvgeek401 (2x), and Snidget (2x) posted nice gains this week.

Some guy is in 1st place right now, but it's probably just a fluke. In fact, I don't even recognize the screen name. Whoever he is, I'm sure he'll be in 44th place by next week.

New Players Still Welcome!
This is the final week the TAR Casino will be open to new entrants. As mentioned previously, all new players this week will be given 5 points to play. For the official rules, please consult Week 1's entry.
For all remaining players, rebuys are still available if you need it and haven't used yours yet. Everyone is above the rebuy amount, so I only advise using it if you have an allergic reaction to points.
Ask a doctor if points are right for you.

No goofy cartoon this week, I'm afraid. What do I look like, The Simpsons?
(Well, obviously not, because if that were true, my TAR Casino Game would've start sucking after the 8th version.)
