All right. Bringing in the big guns. Kick that other kid out of here. We're going to start ripping. All right. All right. But we are going to go with that mullet. We're going. We're changing it up. See if we can get some some luck flowing in here. Just like these locks. Anyways, part three at 2025 Stadium Club mega case profit challenge. We are down to 797 after two parts. Halfway through and only few% of the way there. We do need that banger I've been talking about. But here we go. Here we go. Um, box one of five in this. Again, this will be the second half of the case. And hit the like, sub, comment, all that stuff. I would appreciate it. Go check out the website kcard brakes.com. It's where I post my brakes that I do here on the YouTubes. Um, fun times, quality rips, something something something. >> Here we go. Um, halfway through. We have three autos and one numbered card just in case you lost track. Uh, I know it's hard. It's a lot of counting. Um, three autos, one was a parallel. Um, and only one numbered card. So, I did not go back and look at my f at my prediction. I'm pretty sure though I was saying fiveish autos. That's why I set the over under at four and a half, but I was going the over. And then number cards. I think I said two and three. I'm pretty sure that's what I said was two to three numbered cards. And I may be spot on cuz typically the first half and the second half kind of mirror each otherish um when you do cases like this. And I think that's kind of what we may be seeing. So we're going to find out though. I hope I'm wrong. And the second half it goes bananas. We see like five numbered cards. Five more autos, you know, would be eight autos for the case. That'd be pretty respectable. That would make these that would that would change my opinion on these. But I'm still sticking with the hobbies are probably the better way to go. If you're going to open up some of this, go get a hobby. Guarantee that auto better shot at numbered. So far, per auto, a buck 66 per auto. and $500 per numbered card so far. So, um, those hobbies are looking a lot better on Helunia on the first of the blues. Again, we're just going to fly through the base. We've seen these. Um, now with this case, lots of base. We're going to be getting lots of base. Um, so I'm making some sets. By me, I mean the wife. She will help me. We actually may do that tonight. start making some sets with all this base. Hey, it's a Bobby. We need more Bobby. We need more Otani on these kind of things. There's four of the taken. We'll take it. Take it really. I mean, Otani, Otani, anything is good. Mason win >> on the blue. But the main thing, like I said, a big banging hit. something [music] that just you know the grand slam is what we need um to get anywhere near that green anywhere near first said one card and it could do it one card Logan Gilbert on the sepia the name Drake Pete on the Savage Frankie Alvarez all All right, box one. Not a whole lot going on. Continuing on. Let's see. Let's see something. Tops. Let's see something. Anything really. Glatty. Is there going to be a parallel? Yep. Vlatty on the blue. One number card that first half wasn't totally unexpected on my part, but definitely definitely disappointing. Jacob Deg Grom, Mr. Norman. Here's Curts on a rookie. Take a boilson. Break glass in case of emergency. That's what we're going to have to do. We're going to have to break some glass in case of some emergency cuz I think we have an emergency on our hands at this point. Um, full-fledged emergency cabin Aara box one is going to be dry like most of them. Little savage slug or cow Riley. Take it. Here we go. Box of two. It's got a big dent down there in one of these cards coming in. Big old dent. The back of it. This one right here. Roki. Got some dentage going on on the back. It's a little little something something there. Perez on the blue. Uh I'm not sure what my next um profit challenge be. This I think the third now or fourth I've done. Um not sure at all what I don't have any plans yet. Cease on the sepia and what the next one will be and potentially maybe if TCP comes out and got some um the uh blasters and they're good. Maybe that not to it's I'm not to play a wait and see game kind of you know especially this one. This is definitely souring like cuz I kind of just you jumped in not really knowing when I bought it. You didn't really [music] have the whole you know checklist and odds sheet and everything. you're just kind of at the mercy unfortunately um of that which kind of stinks and you know we spend a thousand bucks on a rip get a whole lot to show for it when it's like ah yeah totally I'll say it again master dies the set can't be trusted especially on TCP we just don't know you know for like flagship and stuff like that not as we be as worried but with how some of these you know, side sets are being treated. Yeah. On along the collector's line because, you know, if you the big releases, you know, Cosmic and those kind of things that, you know, are meant for the breakers these days. Yeah. It's those are pretty solid, but they're expensive. You can't even get them first of all. But J Ram first J Ram blue I've seen the case. Still no Bobby on the blue yet. We need that. Maybe coming in here. Do you guys have a suggestion for me on a uh K ship? you know, I want to do new stuff, but in general, but you guys have any uh you know, maybe what you would do if you were going to do it, and I was saying you're going to do it, but if you were maybe thinking about it, what would you want to do? Hey, Horton on the blue light blue, that is. Let me know in the comments. I'd be interested to know what you think would be a fun one to watch potentially. I think TCP would be cool, but I don't know what else is coming out here in the near future. Who knows? Oh, okay. I I should have seen the yellow coming. I guess it was yellow. Should have known it was an autograph. Michael McGrevy. Auto the pitcher for the Cardinals. Not numbered again, but hey, auto number four. Let's go. All right. Well, you better be getting scared if you said um less than four or less than five because we are at four and we still got eight more boxes for the case. Michael, sweet. Nice little sig there. We'll take it. Looks cool. Yeah, I just didn't even register that there was a yellow card coming and want to be an auto, but we'll take it. Oh, number four. All right, two hit box, maybe. We got to have one to have a two hit box. So, we got the one. Got a little bit of a stack left here. Can we do it? Yeah. Let me know if since the last video, have you seen a two hit box? I'm interested to know because I've yet to see one. Royce on the blue, a numbered card and an auto in one. I think the best my best guess for that is if you got like a numbered card or an auto and then like a beam team. That would be like okay that's just kind of thrown in there extra. That would probably be my best guess of getting a two hit. We have that case hit and then happened to be in a box where there was another um numbered card or auto just happens to be very larkin for rice and all right auto we'll take it on the savage Box three, Cam Smith to get us started. Nice first Cam I think on the blue. Um I think I kind of did the math, but we can do it here while we talk. So to get the whole set, the complete set, uh it's 200 card checklist. Um, we get nine per box. That is um, so 180 halfway through and then I mean 90 through the first half the case and then another 90. So 180. So uh, you can't get a complete set. I don't know if I said that yet the first video, but I was thinking about that again that yeah, you can't get a complete set of these even by doing a case of these, which I mean it's that's not unheard of. Um, can't even physically do it. Oh, just let you know. So, I won't be able to make a complete set. Haven't seen a lot of duplicates. I definitely will say that. Um, I think there's been a couple, but definitely I feel like it's we've seen a good spread there. Jeter on the blue. Yes. It's sad that those are pretty much our stage worthy cards. Each rip is just some of the better blues. um yours for the taking. But that's kind of think where this where this uh release is. You're going to pretty much that's what you're expecting. Hoping for a good blue that sepia to hit something, maybe get a Nick Curts base. At this point, I'm I'm going to say don't expect much. Yeah, we still got two more boxes. Well, about two and a half boxes left in this rip. I think it's my my case for hobbies is getting solidified. I think we're getting there. Continuing on. Oh yeah, this is definitely starting to get brutal. I [music] mean that you know the sided part I said in the get-go but I was like yeah also kind of eh I think I'm we're at that stage of yeah rough the disappointment side is starting to set in which again I I knew it was going to come. I kind of knew it. There we go. Big Poppy on the sepia. All right. We'll put him up there because we're going to need some cards up there. Fill this stage up. Young Holi. So again, the first half uh with the four autos, that gave us a $166 per auto, which I'll be for 130. Um with even in a lot of those hobbies, we've seen lots of double autos. Yeah. Um, even if said we get that looked like it was be a parallel for a second. What am I thinking? We ain't getting that break glass cheerio. Um, cuz even if we got the six, that that would keep that same 166. But I don't think we're going to get the six in my opinion. But we could I could be wrong. We could get eight out of this still. We get another one in this rip and then two more in the next be what the seven. So it's still possible. Lexa Bregman, Sleepia, and a Cam Smith, the Savage Slugger. Um, but yeah, I think I'm going to keep saying it. I'm not trying to, you know, pooper or anything. I'm just what it is. Definitely to that point of Box four. Lucky four something. Come on. Come on. Box four. Um I'm getting I'm gonna have to talk about with this because more work right now. Like it's a chore to have to rip these. Um, just sad. It should be fun. This should be fun and I've lost the fun with this. Maybe I just chose the wrong thing. Maybe. I guess you know Chase. Go up a stage at this point. Some stuff up there. Yeah, took one for the team here. Think I knew that going in and we are proving that for sure. and cease. We had a CP of him. So that's the duplicate on the blue. I mean could have had a duplicate. I just may have forgot. Have forgot. All right. Pretty much we are on the prayer train. Uh we need that nuke. We need the nuke just to be able to salvage it. I It wouldn't change my mind, you know, if we had it, you know, got a nuke. That does not change my mind because it's not about, you know, one hit, you know, because and like that could have been, you know, that could have been a tiny autograph right there and we were like, "Okay, yeah, these are the best ever." But that wouldn't that wouldn't change it. That's [music] just that's just a luck aspect of the hits. To me, it's about the, you know, it's hit ratio type thing [music] per dollar and all that kind of stuff. So, let's go nuke. Yeah, nuke or a god box. But I see yellow. That means auto, fellas. All right. All right. Hey, auto number five. I'm taking it. I'm going to take it. Give me some good. Doing me some good. Auto number five in 14. CPIA. Nice. Jackson Cheerio on the sepia. put them up there now be getting replaced. We're going to have we'll find something else to get that two hit box and also make my rip. Okay. Cheerio again. Seia and I I think I have that one. I remember either either I said that would be cool on CPI or we got one. I know at least said that whether or not we got one. I guess I can't remember. Not confirm or deny. That is an auto that I can confirm. Okay, Monero. And it's going up and down, so we know. Um, unfortunately, a lot of the guys I'd be looking for do not have autos on the base. Bobby doesn't, Otani doesn't, Kurts doesn't. Wood is one of the bigger rookies that does have both the base and then also the chrome. I guess I say base like the paper auto. A lot of the bigger names only on Rome. Oh, got to guess. I'm going to Baldwin kind of has a picture like this. Oh, it's Dodgers. But it's it's River Ryan. We have a Ryan auto for the Dodgers. Could have been Sasaki. Been nice, but it's not. It's another auto though. Auto number two for the rip. Number five for the case. Let's go. We are over. We did. We did something. Bobby breaking glass. Is this a Paul skins coming in? Oh, that looks like a football at first. I know it's just Frank Thomas's forearms on the blue. >> I seriously thought that was a football, but nope. Big old Frank. And the sepia is Yamamoto. [snorts] Nice. Okay, box. Still got one more box, too. Got a smile on my face now. There's the skins. George Brett. There we go. Nice. I think pretty much the only royal I need now is Bobby. >> Fred McGriff on the Savage. Let's go. Here we go. Box five. Box five. All right. Come on, box five. Give me some more hope. Give me the hope. Saki on the concentration. There you go. Um, so if we got to let's say eight autos, the math on that is I'll figure it out here shortly. Um, that would definitely help the case for these, you know, got like that where you had a near 50% shot at an auto. you got, you know, if I mean based upon this case, obviously that's just this case, you know, you would need to look at a handful of cases to really determine the, you know, kind of the rate that we're seeing out of these megas. But Baldwin, the blue still, it's, you know, it's a measuring stick, but, you know, you want a bunch of measuring sticks to get it, you know, more accurate. Bobby. So, I'll do the math real quick just to kind of guesstimate. You know, we say if we got eight, what it would be if we had eight, I mean per per auto, the cost per auto out of these. If we got six for the case, it is 166. So, that's, you know, what it was. But three through half the case. Um, and that's not horrible. So, that's not horrible by any means. Not obvious, you know. Not as good as a hobby. Not bad. It could be at least respectable for the auto aspect, but the, you know, then the number card. Anything else? Not not quite as much. So, if we did have eight autos, it would come out to be a buck 25 per auto. And that would be I would still say go hobby because for the same pretty much sameish price per auto. I mean it's better because you probably have a better shot at a chrome auto and a numbered card of some sort. So that and that is like best case. I don't I mean that's I don't think eight would be normal even if we got eight. I think that would be an outlier in my opinion. Um, I don't think we're going to get to eight. I'm going to say six now for the case. We'll see one more in the last five. Get that prediction market going. That's how I should be making money. Place your odds. Yeah, place you place your money down. Here are the odds. Okay, numbered card, Frankie. There's number two. I make excited. I get a numbered card. I'm excited. It's another aqua teal. Maybe teal. Not sure what they're calling it. Turquoise. Got it right here, though. I guess I could just go and tell you right here. Um, numbered. Okay. Yep. Turquoise out of 99 one and 622 megas or 496 megas depends on which one. But 1199. Another numbered card from the case. It's Frankie. Okay. Double hit. Double hit. Oh, this is the last part of this box, right? Yeah. No more packs to rip. All right. Still a shot though. There's a shot. Sh. Break that glass. Make curts. He's supposed to be back in case you don't need him this year. Nolan Ry, we'll take that little Nolan Ryan on the sepia. Nice. Couple nice ones today. Bobby on the Savage. We'll take that. Another nice Savage Bobby. And last time, Barry Walker. And that's all she wrote for part number three. Yeah. Okay. Two more autos. We'll take it. Two rookie autos. They're pitchers. Again, this rookie the auto checklist is just it's bonkers. It's huge. Um they should have they could have slimmed down on it in my opinion, but uh yeah. Yeah. Not I'm all tough for another number card. Two autos and a number card. This has been the best rip so far as far as hits. Three hits. The first one we had two. Second one we hit two with a number card and an auto. The third one number card and two autos. We're looking up, guys. Um yeah. What will come out of part five? I don't know. I we I'm still rooting for that nuke. Rooting for it. Um so as you can see there's our total, but we'll take another 25 off. Five per box with all this extra stuff that doesn't get count, which again I think is actually kind of short tangent because there's a lot of stuff. A dollar card, right? There's plenty of dollar cards in here. It's a lot of work though. I don't know how much time I have to do all that work. But um anyway, so we'll take the 25 off and there's a total through three. Probably the biggest dent we've taken so far. Possibly. Maybe not. There's not a lot of Otani up here. Otan's been helping. So, we'll see. Um, but I appreciate again. Hit the like, sub, comment, all that stuff. And until next time, see you.
