Re: Spoilers for Tuesday August 6th 2013 (Series 69 Prelim 2
Correct me if I'm wrong everyone/anyone, but if you're talking about MAXes then what has your opponent got to do with it, are you suggesting he would have got more MAXes if he was playing against the likes of me? A stronger opponent is more likely to beat you to the conundrum, and depending on thei...
