    Well Round 5 is in the books and looks like we lost another contestant.
    CubeNewb.....is MIA
    So the actual grades given are
    A nice coin in hand and probably sitting on the 65-66 fence but

    This one I feel is pretty accurately graded

    And I bought this on ebay with horrible pics and got it for a great price. I think is a possible 66 but wouldn't be worth the fees to try for the upgrade.

    Any way thanks for playin all. I will get round 6 up asap.

    Brutal round. No way that Merc isn't at least a 66.

    I was beginning to wonder myself about this one, but jeffb pointed this out

    I never even saw them. I think in the holders the rims and rim dings often get overlooked, or maybe just by people relatively new to grading like me. Still definately something to consider.
    I know I'll pay more attention to the rims from now on.

    And here they are:

    Everyone's first dropped score !!

    ... and the leaders are bunching up again, going 3 and 4 wide down the straightaway. Turn 2 will be interesting !!

    Group average dropped this round, as we saw some coins that were harder to pin down in the MS area !!
    .66 to 1.07 this round.

    Down to 28 players, with CUBENEWB dropping back 10, punting,, laying down his helmet on the field, and walking off :hail:bye-bye......

    EXACTA's > Nada :eek: ,, oh the shame of it.

    Now - THE LEADER BOARD

    1 ) The most honorable HORSES A#*..:p - Still holding the rein's, and trudging along behind the mule and through it's droppings .....
    .... CAMLOV2 (avg. score = 1.57)... another round like this one and you'll be passing the honor,, good round CAMLOV2, actually the best in the pack this round, with a .33 average !! .... .33 + dropped score = 25% reduction in your average !! (do it again !!)

    2 ) EXACTA's: 4 tied in the top spot... None of last weeks leaders could manage a singe exacta, so the pack on top GROWS.:eek:... all tied with 6 exact picks each.
    BAHABULLY
    DUKE
    JALLENGOMEZ
    RAIDER - oh no,, here he comes.

    3 ) BEST GRADER (avg score): Also a growing pack .... at .57
    BAHABULLY
    DUKE
    RAIDER - ... have I said 'oh no' yet... it's like racing old #3 with this guy in the pack,, you just know that at some point he gonna make a run, and lord help ya if you get in his way:devil:
