When it’s a “live-format” weekend like last weekend was, the day most likely to provide notable individual performances is Friday…which is always reserved for Pick & Prays so some of you can keep your mind on your work. (Picking winners is nice, but those bi-weekly paychecks are sure things!) This, indeed, proved to be the case last Friday, courtesy of Ryan Flanders.
We’ll have lots of HorseTourneys stars live onsite this weekend between the Pegasus World Cup Betting Championship on Saturday, a Monmouth NHC qualifier on the same day and the big Sam Houston contest on Sunday. We wish them all luck…and we hope they’re good at multi-tasking because there’s a lot going on her this weekend as well.
The eighth annual edition of The BIG One will take place on Saturday and Sunday, September 19-20 at Laurel Park. There are a few changes that have been made to the 2020 event…but first, here’s what’s NOT changing.
A four-day, Pick & Pray holiday weekend afforded lots of opportunities for multi-tabling, and several players successfully did just that—including Gary Machiz, who wasted little time in setting the tone for the weekend.
We have 25 featured tourneys across the four-day weekend that begins on Friday and concludes on Martin Luther King Jr. Day. Included are three important Last Chance events—one each on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. For the sake of chronological clarity, however, we begin our weekend preview with the five featured tourneys slated for Friday.
Retired investment banker Jim Lisowsky clearly knows how to make a lot out of a little.
There are no “Last Chance” tourneys and no “First Chance” games this weekend…yet chances abound—for onsite tournament seats and prize money across 21 featured events this Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The Saturday and Sunday competitions are primarily Live-format games, but we get things started on Friday with six Pick & Prays.
Robbie Courtney’s three-month saga seems to get even more remarkable with each passing week.
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. We choose 25 races, you decide which 10 of them you like best, and may the best decision makers win.
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.
