The file attached has last years numbers as well as this year, and it's quite interesting to see how similar they are, except for the winners.

Last year as a group, we were 138/1102 for a win rate of 12.5%
This year we were 260/2151 for 12.1%

So, don't quite your day job!

And the winners for 2009 are:

FIRST PLACE: GOLFER 9/36 with a ROI of 0.86

SECOND PLACE: CANNON SHELL 8/36 with a ROI of 0.48

THIRD PLACE: PWEISER 5/36 with a ROI of 0.37

Golfer established a leading position early and extended his lead down the stretch. All the while Cannon and Pweiser waited until late in the contest and made bold moves to the finish.

Please PM me your contact info and addresses for prizes!!!!!


Spyder out!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks again Spyder for the contest. Congrats to Golfer who extended his lead late, winning under wraps. I cant believe I finished ahead of many much better handicappers than me, including Paul who was third.

What about a Kentucky Downs contest?

There are prizes?

Nice job Chuck, you should get a new gig as a handicapper if you don't mind the paycut, congrats to all cappers that finished in the black also.
