Nini Hunter wrote: 6 years ago By my calculations, J.r. Lewis takes both the first place prize AND the new player prize for a total of a whopping $750k! He collected 135 points.
Then, there are three people tied for the next highest score, so that should be interesting. (Aaron Micheal, Ben Stover, Laura Smith) They all collected 126 points.

Also, remember, these results are preliminary and could change if I made a wrong calculation. I double checked, but you have 24 hours to correct me.
Splitting $250k between three people is stupid and math is hard. Assuming these results stand, I'll up the 2nd place prize to $300K so each of them get $100,000, making this the $1,050,000 Steward's Cup Handicapping Challenge!

Results will go official at 7AM PT tomorrow morning, so if you have any questions about Nini's math, speak today or forever hold your peace.

A player has messaged me and has told me I did some incorrect calculations. He was right. I was most certainly incorrect with many's people's points, including J.r.'s. I apologize for my math incompetence and getting all of this wrong, and I know people were really excited about the prizes.

I counted differently for myself (98), but the difference wouldn't be enough to break the top few, so no matter. Thanks for this guys, I know it was a ton of work!

Yep, I rechecked and you got 99! Somehow your bonus points got deleted in my score sheet. :/
I did double check it again. Nothing else seems to be deleted.
