    Trivia 125pt Question

    How much harder is it than the 50pt one?

    I always cash out if I get the 50. Is it worth going for the 125?

    I've gone for the 125 pts a handful of times and yesterday was the first time I've ever gotten it right. Usually, the final question is really obscure. I had one once that asked how many completions did a Kansas QB have in the 2005 season or something. It would have been a total guess.

    First one is usually very simple, last time I got what does "OT" stand for
    Second is 50/50 40/60 for me
    Never went for the third yet... usually chicken out if I get the 50 correct

    you need to hit 2 of every 3 125 point questions to make it worth stopping at 50 points. From my experience, you are better off taking the 50 points.

    I always go for 50, and cash out the 50 if correct. I never went for 125.

    I was under the impression the 10, 50 and 125 pointers were all random and not necessarily in order from easiest to hardest. But I've never gone for the 125-pointer because there's no reason to.

    I went for it once, and the thing was some very obscure statistical fact about college football in the 90's. Hell I bust out going for 50 half the time.

    Just take the 50 points, the 125 point questions are too difficult.

    I went for the 3rd question 3 times and got it correct only 1 time, and that was just by completely guessing on it. Normally I cash out after getting the 50 pts, but I wanted to have a Banner by my name. Might try the 3rd question again, if I get pass the 2nd question first.

    Oftentimes the 50-point questions are tougher than the 125-point ones...at least it's seemed that way to me.

    I will tell you one thing it is easier to win the 125 point trivia question than win 125 in the casino.

    Thanks to everyone for their input.

    If the 125 point questions are no harder (or perhaps the same) as the 50pt ones I'll have to start trying them. Hopefully I'll be complaining about how silly all the badges look below my posts soon

    i usually get crazy questions for the 125, usually about some rule a sport had in like 1902 or something like that.

    I went for the 125 for the first time last week, I should have gotten it right but I still found a way to screw it up

    You are basically guessing on the 125 pts. The 50 pters are reasonable.

    I think Wednesday is one of the days and then thereŽs also one random day per week.

    IŽd love a badge and will start going for 125 just to get one. If I make the 125 will the badge be automatically added or do I need to do something?
