Not even close. Plenty of green between 9's nostrils and the wire.

That's why those yearly checkups at the eye doctor are important.

I think he was comparing the photo proof to what it looked like in real time. It looked very possible the 9 got up. This was just one of those bob trick shots.
I;ll join sentiment with OP. I've seen a lot of questionable results come down at GPX. Seems the finish line position varies from race to race/photo to photo...

I've been having a good run playing TAM. But after a quick overview at yesterday's card I wrote on top of my playsheet this would be a good card to pass. I was right about that. Today's card at FGX gives me the same caution.

edit. Scratches filtered some of the mud out of FGX water for today, but now the fields are even smaller.
Looks like a good day to contribute a few buck in the cold pick super pools.
Even small payouts can add up real nice when you get 20X the .10 prize. Just don't play when the odds don't add up to good profit.
