If I were Bruin, I'd take it.

Why? Wasn't that the point of gambling in this product? Lets just say case sucks and best card is $200 retail, so you'll have gained $150 if sold. If its a great case, then it's $500+ card. My point is the risk vs reward isn't worth $150 if you got into the break for the chance at a top pick

Cool - That's the great thing about gambling... some people have a higher threshold than others. I personally have seen enough of these breaks where I think $350 cash is more than enough to get me to walk with the money... you seem to think differently but that's cool. I couldnt' tell you if more people would follow you or me but either way, I'd take the money and run if I were him... I mean sh!t, that's already 7x your buy-in... take that all day long!

Definitely think 7x your buy in is a fair number and we have seen enough cases to see there are some hits higher than $350 at #1, but more often than not it is a ways below that threshold.

And [MENTION=8906]RStadlerASU22[/MENTION] he is gaining $300.25 immediately with little risk involved. I on the other hand love the thrill and the gamble, as Andrew (groupbreaker) can attest to.

Totally cool - Hope he accepts your offer then for your sake. I could only WISH to have the #1 spot in one of these for $50 or so lol

A $300 profit is not much compared to some of the best cards in some of these cases. I would roll the dice over the instant cash. There are some sick cards that have yet to be pulled.

Good Luck hope this is a great case.

Bruin I am offering $350 paypal gift for #1 pick in this break

I think these situations are fun which is why I like group breaks with Andrew. I'm fine with either a big hit or a $100 card. Either way I won't lose. If I was back in college (that was a long time ago) I probably would have accepted the $350 but life is good these days and this just adds to the goodness. Good luck to everyone in both cases!

I do understand the other side in terms of 7 x's the money, but you gotta back out what the top card will bring even if its a dud case. Then that's what the gain would be. Anyway moving along, good luck to all in the breaks tonight.

So the dud cases that the top card has been a $150-200 card, so in a dud case it is a dud.

But this is Andrew and he never has bad cases :D

You would have chosen poorly.


Amazing Trout. Nice 2 cases.
