Daily analysis, December 6
I watched tonight’s game at the gym. I anticipate the worst.
For the second night in a row, my work is done early.
Carlos Ross: 8,600
Craig Cornish Jr.: 22,000
Franke Santos: 2,000
Except Carlos makes me curse (silently this time). Why? Why?? Why throw away a guaranteed $1,000? (Remember: second gets $2k, third gets $1k.)
Oh well, it was fun while it lasted. We lost a very good player in Carlos, but Craig looks poised to have a go at the TOC rankings. We’ll find out Monday.
Have a great weekend, everyone!
The Final Jeopardy! clue for December 6, 2013:
HISTORIC LETTERS
IN APRIL 1865 SHE WROTE TO MARY LINCOLN, “I CANNOT REMAIN SILENT…BROKENHEARTED BY THE LOSS OF MY OWN BELOVED HUSBAND”
Correct response: Who is Queen Victoria?
This was just dumb on my part. I was tired, borderline hypoglycemic, and simply not thinking straight anymore. Hope Franke enjoys the extra $1k though! 😀
That’s a frequent complaint of multi-day champions in the Friday game. I can’t imagine playing that many matches back to back! Well done, Carlos, and thanks for coming by.
