The Winvivor is down to 857, while Showvivor still has 1185.

Winvivor is ranked by win payoff, and the #1 player had a $119.80 payoff either yesterday or today!!

I used her for Brisnet's Race of the Day... glad I also went somewhere else for the two SA contests.

That's crazy! I hope that person had real money on the horse too.

Me too. Looks like there will be about 590 people in Winvivor heading in to Wednesday. Good luck to all still alive.

Totally crazy. I just tracked down that payoff. It was "Bonita Sonador" in race 7 on the first day of the contest, Jan 1. An MSW. The winner went off at 58.90-1 in an 8-horse race, and the next highest odds were only 13.50-1. I can only imagine (not having them) what the PP's must look like.

How does someone pick a horse like that in a Winvivor contest?! The person is still alive in the contest two days later. I wonder what odds those next winning picks went off at!
