Okay, well gnubg may not agree with snowie's rollout, but snowie was easiest, (read: possible), to enter the position into. I was very slightly right to split the money, it seems, in theory. As a practical matter Alan was deader than a mackerel twice in this match, and he threw match saving shots which coupled with some sub-par dice of my own resulted in me getting 3 men closed out. He was unlucky to leave one shot, which I missed, then had the further misfortune to leave a last ditch shot for me which I was able to hit. The subject position resulted, and I think I hedged because I didn't trust the dice and I was feeling it was about time I LOST a Masters final. As it turns out, it wasn't.

Please post all of my mistakes in BOLD type here, so that my opponents will expect them irl, and so that you will feel better about Mr. Grant.

Alan told me you hedged 300 with him, though you didn't want to. Did you get odds or something? I assumed it was an even hedge.
