List Updated. P.S. SJM, that must have been some performance!

Thank you Freddie! Did this one quickly - I will clean tonight. Apologies!

Hey S. I'm not sure I understand the feasibility of assuming no practice in your odds, as there would be no functional way for the person offering the bet to guarantee any takers haven't practiced in preparation. As to the loose table, I'm simply saying that the challenger needs to demand it...

List updated. On a sad note, we lost more than we gained :(.
