We all start the new year even, and in 2020 you can try to get things off on the right foot not just with a nice assortment of traditional Pick & Prays, but with six important All Optional Live tourneys on Saturday and Sunday.

Lisa Blevins to Join Newly Enriched Husband Jobby at NHC; Phillip Conway Captures Third Featured Cash Tourney of the Month (Weekend Recap December 27-29)
The plan was for Jobby Blevins to play in February’s NHC and for his wife Lisa to cheer him on as his “+1” in Las Vegas. That all changed last Friday…in more ways than one.

A dozen seats to the 2020 NHC are certain to be awarded here this weekend—eight in a single day…in a single tourney. That represents just a small fraction of the featured action, however, during the 52nd and final weekend of 2019. It all begins on Friday.

When it came to the NHC, Dane Moore entered December on the outside looking in. In fact, he wasn’t just outside…he was way down the street. He had just 3,500 or so Tour Points to his name but then the calendar flipped—and so did Moore’s fortunes.
Pre-Christmas Pick & Pray Weekend Offers Two Dozen Featured Tourneys, Including Friday Flo-Cal Qualifier, Two Guaranteed $10,000 Sunday Games and at Least Six NHC Seats
Some people just go to church on Christmas and Easter, but we here at HorseTourneys surround ourselves in prayer on a regular basis…at least every other weekend! This weekend happens to be one of those Pick & Pray weekends—which could leave you more time for some holiday shopping. If nothing else, it will relieve you from worrying about whether you should change your picks as the horses are about to enter the starting gate. We have 24 featured tourneys this weekend—all but four of them of the “set it and forget it” variety.
Phillip Conway Sweeps the Saturday-Sunday Featured Cash Tourneys, Dave Nichols and Brian Chenvert Each Win a Pair During Wild Sunday (Weekend Recap December 13-15)
We’re always impressed when a player has success on more than one day of the weekend. Horse Racing is a hard game in which to be consistent. We certainly do see multi-day weekend success from time to time, but I don’t think we’ve seen it much, if at all, across our Saturday-Sunday high-end cash games. That changed this weekend courtesy of Phillip Conway.
Seven Guaranteed NHC Seats, Two Pegasus World Cup Qualifiers and Three HPWS Play-Ins Just Some of the Highlights Among 24 Featured Events This Weekend
There are just 58 shopping days left until the 21st NHC. Actually, there are just 57…since, for some reason, no tracks are open on Christmas Day. As a public service to shoppers feeling under pressure, the NTRA this weekend is offering seven guaranteed spots at HorseTourneys/HorsePlayers to their big dance at Bally’s on February 7-9. We at HorseTourneys will augment those holiday offerings with cash games (more than $35,000 guaranteed this week) plus qualifiers to many other worthy events.
