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.

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.
