Day #35 - 8/31

Solvent (3rd)
Zubani (8th) won with & saw @ Presque July 4th weekend :D

Two More Days
 

I'll update tonight so you know what you need to make a final move to the finish.

Remember to get all 36 bets in and if you're behind you might as well swing for the fences. If you have less than 36 bets it's -40 for each bet you don't make.

Good luck and hope you enjoyed it.

Lamentation (8th)

Thanks for the contest Spyder :) :tro:

UPDATE - We have a horse race
 

With one day to go giant moves by herkhorse, trifecta, zaf, immanuel kent, and swedejxn have thrown what looked like a cake walk for hi im god into a real race to the finish.

hi im god +0.66 2 bets left
herkhorse +0.34 3 bets left
trifecta +0.29 1 bet left
zaf +0.25 0 bets left (you hit with your 37th bet but would have not been enough to win)
immanual ket +0.13 4 bets left
swedejxn +0.03 1 bet left
pmacdaddy +0.00 1 bet left

Now, you guys chasing need approx. $220 to $500 respectively worth to catch god if he doesn't connect with his two bets so need to look for some long shots.

If you see anything wrong let me know.

I'll go over everything tomorrow and make a final standings.

Good luck

#5 vineyard haven

leaving the rail open for herk on medaglia d'onore. i'll feel very stupid if that horse somehow manages to win and costs me the contest.

great contest spyder. tons of fun win or lose. can't believe the effort you put into tracking all this. thanks for all your work.

You made a believer out of me!!

it would have taken omnipotence to forsee cribnote blowing the turn.

or luck.

that one goes in the perspective file to read after a particularly brutal beat.

thanks again spyder. you put a lot of work into this.

Tough to compete with god! I was hoping you would let Medaglia win at 70-1 just for the irony. You're no fun.:wf

felt bad beating another tom waits fan, if it's any consolation.

Confetti all around! Had lots of fun, Spyder was the real winner. I was all out just to break even.

Final Standing
 

GOD WINS!

hi im god finsihed in style yesterday with a $204 winner Vineyeard Haven in the Hopeful to extend and cement his victory. hi im god ended with a very impressive 10/36 with 27.8% wins and an ROI of +0.91!

Second was Herkhorse with +0.34
Third was trifecta with +0.29

Ten players out of the 27 that went the distance ended up even or in the plus column which is pretty impressive. Eleven players had no winners and many ditched the contest when things were no going well.

Overall 1,102 bets were made producing 138 winners for 12.5% wins.

The prize will be announced later today. Although it was a bit of work I enjoyed keeping up with the contest. Hope you did as well and I learned a great deal. About 48 weeks til we do it again.
