LAST EDITED ON 03-09-11 AT 08:23 PM (EST)goes to qwertypie, who climbed 9 ranks this week thanks toClear as Mud
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.
Week 3 Results
1st place - Zev/Justin (2x)
2nd place - Gary/Mallory (1.6x)
3rd place - Ron/Christina (1.5x)
4th place - LaKisha/Jennifer (1.2x)
5th place - Flight Time/Big Easy (1.1x)
6th place - Jet/Cord (.9x)
7th place - Kent/Vyxsin (.8x)
8th place - Margie/Luke (.5x)
9th place - Jaime/Cara (.4x)
10th place - Mel/Mike (0x)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
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.
TAR17 Teams Remaining
Gary/Mallory
Flight Time/Big Easy
Jaime/Cara
Jet/Cord
Kent "Don't call me Kynt"/Vyxsin
LaKisha/Jennifer
Margie/Luke

Good luck everyone! 
(Well, obviously not, because if that were true, my TAR Casino Game would've start sucking after the 8th version.) Let's try it again: all-in on the cowboys.
bet all 10 TARbucks on Kent & Vyxsin
Just another Sleeperbloke I think Yogi needs a 30 point penalty because I swear he took my pack with my passport and money and moved it to the men's dressing room! WAAAHHH!!! Gary/Mallory - 30 30 on Gary/Mallory
25 on Zev/Justin 15. louislam - 69 30 on Gary/Mallory The Amazing Race Fan from Hong Kong!
Whohoo! 90 points to play, with a 30 point max bet. 30 points - Gary/Mallory I WAS GOING TO BET ON THE GLOBETROTTERS BUT CHANGED MY MIND TO JET/CORD INSTEAD. I AM PUTTING THIS HERE SO I CAN HAVE A PITY PARTY LATER FOR NOT GOING WITH MY FIRST INSTINCT. Here are my picks hmm with 90 points 20on Jamie/Cara Besides the Cowboys, Gary/Mallory, and the Globetrotters they are the only team I would vote for. So, let's just hope I don't lose all my points...
All in the Cowboys.
Zev & Justin - 15 LaKisha/Jennifer x 30 11 on Zev and Justin 30 points: Gary/Mallory
15 on Cowboys jet/cord 20 pts 30 points on Jet/Cord
No goofy cartoon this week, I'm afraid. What do I look like, The Simpsons?

I was going to bet on Jet & Cord, but went with the Globetrotters. We'll see who made the better choice. Probably you.

I hear you're no stranger to Men's dressing rooms so what's the big deal? Not that I am admitting anything here.

I read this message 4 or 5 times trying to figure out what if there was a pop culture reference I wasn't getting. Then I re-read the thread.
