I do wish Rachel would stop suggesting they take a risk on the last numbers, as at that level of play 1L is a risk

Sam could have continued from his 5000 by (75/25)+7=10, 5000/10 and subtract the 1.
Quickest way is 7x75-25-1 of course.

Dave C back for his 5th show. Looking forward to more 3L action - will the std method be used?

Nice standard method by Dave to finish off the numbers today.
I thought I rememered Susie discussing how WAITER had become a verb, but it is not in the dictionary yet, so
my "WAITERED" was not valid in R13.
