Master of masters, etapa intermediara!
Nu ma pot rabda sa nu ma laud putin, mai ales ca nu stiu cand o sa ma mai intalnesc cu o asemenea pozitie in leaderboard. O fi ego-ul meu de vina , poate si-a bagat insusi dracuL codita, dar mi-e musai sa postez imaginea de mai jos.
Nu-i rau deloc dar suntem numai in prima parte a competitiei care dureaza pana la sfarsitul lunii. M-am uitat ( si am mai jucat!) la lunile trecute si castigatorii din trecut au avut punctaje in 800 si 1000, deci mai am de muncit ca sa-mi 'securizez' pozitia.
Daca extrapolez putin numarul de meciuri jucate cu numarul de puncte am sanse teoretice sa-mi mentin pozitia, postez mai jos imaginea cu partidele jucate.
Daca ma mentin pe podium o sa mai am o problema, premiile oferite de stars nu sunt cash in cont ci in T$, adica poti sa-i folosesti la intrari in turnee, sng-uri sau spin-uri. Cine stie, poate luna viitoare joc si eu primul meu Sunday Million :) .
