"TAR14 Casino Game - Finale Entry!"
LAST EDITED ON 05-06-09 AT 07:56 PM (EST) The last shall be last Another rough week for Kisha & Jennifer and this time it turned out to be fatal. Despite being U-Turned, they recovered pretty nicely, mostly thanks to Jaime & Cara's inability to find the next cluebox. Coming back from being U-Turned is a pretty tough feat (as shimane22 showed), so you've got to give them props for making a run at it. Week 11 Results 1st place - Tammy/Victor (2x) 2nd place - Margie/Luke (1.5x) 3rd place - Cara/Jaime (.5x) 4th place - Lakisha/Jennifer Do-Over With Tammy/Victor, the overwhelming favorite, finishing 1st this week, not much changed in terms of the general rankings. As we learned this episode, they would've ended up finishing 3rd last week (.5x), so it really makes me wonder what would've happened to this game, had last episode simply been a non-elimination pitstop. Unfortunately, the loans ended up knocking three more players out of the game, esquire, suzzee, and Corvis, who each made a Cara/Jaime wager. Going into the final episode, you've no choice but roll the dice. On a personal note, I almost made this wager myself after being burned by the TBC episode, before settling on Margie/Luke. Thanks for playing, you guys. It would've been quite a turnaround if Jaime/Cara would've pulled it out. This week's Perfect Bet Award goes to michel with a ridiculously-godlike 127x payout. Thanks to the loan, he turned 6 points into 762. Honorable mention to dragonflies who scored a crazy 53x this week. The Greatest Gainer Award also goes to michel who jumped 14 ranks overall, followed by dragonflies with 13 ranks. And to think michel tried to quit the game last week. Leaderboard 1.

Corvis - -749 The top spots didn't shift around too much going into the final week, although we had some huge jumps into the Top 10. It should be interesting to see what kind of strategy is going to be employed going into this final week. Finale Payout Table 1st place - 2x 2nd place - Break even (1x) 3rd place - 0x As I mentioned before, I'm comping all the way through the finale. So if you want to comp this week, you might be looking at a 3x/0x/0x payout table. If you're hoping for a final push, it might be worth a shot. Bonus Game - Slumdog "Million"aire Per Casino Game tradition, in this final bonus game, teams may place a wager on which contestant will say the word "million" first in the final episode. This includes all forms of the word "million" such as "millionaire," "millions," or even "Chamillionaire." And the previews don't count, as usual. And if no one says it, everyone loses their wager. Unlike previous years where you wager on teams, this year wagers will be based on which contestant will say it. In other words, you're picking a person, not a team. For example, I'm accepting wagers of "Tammy" or "Victor" but not "Tammy/Victor" together. Here's the Payout Table for the Bonus Game. Bonus Game Payout Table Correct Guess - 6x Incorrect Guess - 0x Max Wager - 200 points Max Number of Wagers - 1 (Considering last week's bonus was +750, +1000 seems appropriate this week.) TAR14 Teams Remaining Cara/Jaime Margie/Luke Tammy/Victor Final Note As usual, in the finale week, feel free to private message me with your picks if you want to keep them a secret. You don't have to, of course, but the option is there. It's just like Final Jeopardy. Good luck! The comps should make this an interesting finale! The comps actually forced me to change the Bonus Game from the teams to the individuals. What's a 3x bonus when you can just comp the payout to get the same thing?

1. "Finale Picks!"

LAST EDITED ON 05-06-09 AT 08:01 PM (EST)
Since I'm receiving some picks via PM, I always post my finale picks beforehand. It's not that I have a real shot at usurping anyone, but I'm obsessed with keeping everything above-board and honest.
The more honest I look, the less auditing the Casino gets come tax season.
490 points to spend.
Comps (1x)
1st place - 3x
2nd place - 0x
280 points - Cara/Jaime
Bonus Game
200 points - Victor
10 points banked, so I can say I somehow survived the comps season.
This is basically me going All-In with deuce-seven offsuit. Hey, people occasionally flop full-houses with that, right?

HA! I just saved you the trouble of tracking me down for the ~~funds I borrowed~~ bailout
Someone should start an "Elimination Lodge" here, I need a place to hang out after blowing all my cash.
Good luck to the remaining players and thanks Jims02 for letting me play in your casino. Now I'm off to the lounge and see if I can snag me an old rich guy....

It's been loads of fun, as always, Jims02. Thanks for running the game. I think I've probably been the most consistent member of the Single Digits Club, and I take a lot of pride in that! In that vein, here is my bet for the finale:
bank 1 point

In an ideal world, I would demand you accept my previous entry as the same for last week, but whatever, my main motivation was finishing ahead of suzzee, so I can't complain.
My final picks...until next time!!!
81 points on Margie&Luke
12 points on Tammy&Victor
Borrow 80 points for Margie&Luke
And I will invest 1 point on Cara&Jaime for future endeavors.

I agree -- if I bust by having someone else say the million and by having some other team win, well at least I only busted out at the end and it was a good game to bust out on!
