In the great years at Hartford Jaialai - there were 3 levels
of play.
early-middle-late -
A good player playing in the late games - in those days was
not going
to make much prize money - with that line up.
So a smart player wouldn't be disappointed to be dropped into
middle games.
Where his earning would increase in prize money.
Most players during the great years of jaialai -
on the last day of their contract would walk into Buddy's office-
given a contract for a set period of time with an annual salary-
sign it then or have no job. No negotiations!
