Jeff, this is correct. My fallacy (and I think others were thinking the same way) was thinking that you could simply subtract the winnings total from the total bet, 50k, to get what what you have left. However, this doesn't account for the positive effect of the winnings. In fact when you subtract the winnings from the total bet = the losses, added to the winnings yields what remains of the total bet. In my case: 50k minus 2k in winnings = 48k in losses; plus the 2k in winnings = -46k total losses out of the 50k + the 10k bonus = 36k. Thanks for the Math lesson.

No worries.
For those that still might not fully understand it, just know that all the scores are all being tallied the exact same way........so this provides a standard for them to be compared to each other.
I just worry about some math errors....which is why people should continue to double-check the math if they care to. We'll do results later tonight when i have time..
