You might be right that the info is a tad out of date, but the analysis almost in real time was awesome. It's great to see your thought process behind the events of the pro tour.

Thanks, Carl! It's very difficult to write a financial column about something that has such drastic impact on the MTG market. Huntmaster went from $15 to $30 on Star City Games in about 3 days. So the article is already a bit obselete in that regard!

I think the moral here is try to stay on top of what cards are seeing play at the Pro Tour as best as you can. As soon as you see something that looks remotely good, make a move on a set. Waiting for the deck to win the Pro Tour is a bad idea, as a lot of the price jump will have already occurred. There is a bit more risk in buying early, but the payout is immense. Over 100% in the case of Huntmaster.

I wasn;t able to watch any of the PT (other real life commetments) but stayed up to date w / the email blasts and this article puts it all together nicely. Thanks and well done! 🙂
