Hats off to Matt and Squiggs - was the most exciting death match I've watched so far, and the quick topic discussion was really good back and forth. You guys really entertained!

That was a fun game to play. I'm not sure if there will be another version of this, so I'll keep most of my strategy and thoughts until after Genius is over. I will say that I put a lot of time and thought into the 0-0 round 7 in the first game, which was set up by earlier plays. Whatever happens in this game, I think I'll be most proud of that move.

That zero zero play was great. I thought you would bet ten for the points. Then realized too late that you could force a draw.
Nicely played and thanks everyone for the great game.
Also, please do your best to kick Squiggs out next. It was a lot of work to accumulate all those points.
Although there is something to be said to be eliminated by the eventual winner...
GP_Matt was eliminated in Round 9 and now there are 6 players remaining.
Gaudreau Count
squiggs96 has 37
HockeyGuy15 has 30
GGG has 30
Bizaro86 has 24
Rathji has 24
mrkajz44 has 9
Total 154
The 10th Main Match is
PUCK'S DILEMMA
In Puck's Dilemna you must use more Pucks for your team to win, and you must use less Pucks for an individual win.
Firstly, we will have two team captains. They are the top two current Gaudreau holders, squiggs96 with 37 and Hockeyguy15 with 30 (There was a tie for 2nd between Hockeyguy15 and GGG but Hockeyguy15 finished higher in the last game OPEN/PASS). The captains will draft their team. squiggs96 will captain the red team and will draft 1st and 4th. Hockeyguy15 will captain the white team and will draft 2nd and 3rd.
The game consists of a best-of-7. When one team gets 4 wins the game ends.
All of you will receive 15 Red or White Pucks for a total of 45 per team. You cannot give or trade beans to each other.
For each round, each player will secretly PM me how many pucks they want to submit. There is no limit to how many of your remaining Pucks you can submit and you can submit 0.
For each round, the team that submits the most Pucks will be the winner of the round and gain 1 win. Whenever a round ends, the total number of Pucks submitted by the losing team will be revealed. The total number of Pucks submitted by the winning team will NOT be revealed. If the Round is tied, the pucks submitted that round will be returned and the Round replayed.
Winning Conditions
1) Once a team gets 4 wins the game is over.
2) The player on the winning team who has the most Pucks leftover is the winner and will receive 2 Gios and can give one to another player. (If there are joint winners, they will all receive Gios)
3) The player on the losing team who has the least Pucks leftover is the elimination candidate (if there are multiples, the winners will choose the elimination candidate from the multiples)
Players on the winning team will receive 2 Gaudreaus for each Puck they have left. Players on the losing team receive nothing.
This game will leave you all with a dilemma. For your team to win you must submit many Pucks but doing so may make you the elimination candidate if your team loses.
The Round Times are as follows
Round 1 Tuesday 8am-2pm
Round 2 Deadline Tuesday 8pm
Round 3 Deadline Wednesday 2pm
Round 4 Deadline Wednesday 8pm
Round 5 Deadline Thursday 2pm
Round 6 Deadline Thursday 8pm
Round 7 Deadline Friday 2pm
You may change your round picks up until the round deadline.
No PM will be treated as submitting 0 Pucks.
