Default 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.

Spyder

Default 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
