Thanks guys. 2nd year in a row qualifying from CNL so that is pretty neat. I was in first place with 2 non mandatory races left and still had one play but could not hang on in stretch. The difference in coin for the tourney was $8000 to winner and $1600 for third.
However, it is hard to complain about it when I had such a great time at the NHC last year and I get to go again this year. Maybe this will be my year to cash in the finale. I will have a great time regardless. I am already looking forward to the vacation.
