... assignments follow. You guys made this one difficult - we ended up with 15 players not including myself -- wanting to play 19 chips, with one willing to play an additional chip if needed to balance things out (thanks Paul). With nine horses running, that made a mess. So, I decided to sit this one out and take one two chip player down to one, making a total of 18 entries, two for each horse. No time to ask who would like to volunteer to play only one instead of two, so I selected at random from among the four 2 chip players -- and it came up Ralph Myers. So, Ralph, you only have one chip at risk instead of two.
