Anyway, my current rank is almost 80k with only $65 wager. I think we need to wager at least $200k to stay in the top 5,000 users list of the $10 million monthly race.
I'm at 12k with $4k wager, without a doubt we will need to wager much in order to be the the top 5000.
200k can be enough but it is not recommended to wager for the race if we are small players only because the reward might be something not worth the risk.
Pretty sure I will not be on the top 5000 places at the end of the race because there are so many things to be prioritized in December to January.
