I zoomed in on the checks, but can't make how many zeros are there.  ;-)

What was each check worth?

EDIT:  I actually did zoom in and do they each say $250.00?  How are my eyes?

Small amounts of money =\ $375. It was $1000 total purse tournament. Better than a kick in the ass

Johnson ranch is my next money tournament. $2000 in that one. And then early august I am playing a $25,000 open.

That sounds right. I think it was $250 for singles and split 250 for doubles
