First, I can't change my picks.
Second, I think my picks, on the whole, are good. I could have a big fall and winter.
Third, sometimes you have pocket kings and lose to pocket aces, or get cracked by 2-6 offsuit. It happens (or doesn't happen in the case of the FB DP).
I thought I had picked more people in their 90s, but alas, only one.
