Online super tourney
From today's Brisnet "Handicapper's Edge"
TwinSpires.com to offer 'Biggest Vegas Qualifier Ever' for NHC TwinSpires.com, the official advance deposit wagering service for Churchill Downs Incorporated (NASDAQ: CHDN) and its family of racetracks, will offer horseplayers an unprecedented opportunity to qualify to compete in the 2008 Daily Racing Form/National Thoroughbred Racing Association National Handicapping Championship IX ("NHC IX") in the "TwinSpires.com Biggest Vegas Qualifier Ever," an online competition set for December 15. The top 15 finishers in the "TwinSpires.com's Biggest Vegas Qualifier Ever" will be guaranteed spots in the field for NHC IX, which is scheduled for January 25-26 in Las Vegas. The winner of the qualifier will earn a first place prize of at least $10,000 and will be eligible for a $1 million bonus if he or she also wins NHC IX. The "TwinSpires.com Biggest Vegas Qualify Ever" will also offer five spots to compete in the Coast Casino Horseplayer World Series, which will be held in Las Vegas the same week as NHC IX. The handicapping contest will be conducted online through Churchill Downs Incorporated's account wagering service, TwinSpires.com. Participants may register online at www.twinspires.com. The entry fee is $250 and each contestant in the "Biggest Vegas Qualifier Ever" will be limited to two entries. Contestants can also register for the contest through BrisBET.com, TsnBET.com and WinTicket.com. "The 'TwinSpires.com Biggest Vegas Qualifier Ever' is a 'can't miss' opportunity for players looking to earn an elusive spot in the DRF/NTRA National Handicapping Championship," said Jeremy Clemons, vice president of marketing for TwinSpires.com. "We hope to show horseplayers that TwinSpires.com is the most player-friendly account wagering site in racing. This qualifier will offer the greatest number of spots in NHC ever awarded in a single-day contest." The one-day online tournament will be structured around the traditional win/place format on a set number of mandatory races for all contestants. The tournament director will be Brisnet Marketing Director Rich Nilsen, a veteran handicapping contestant. "What makes this tournament so appealing to play is the limited number of entries and unprecedented number of qualifying spots," Nilsen said. "As a horseplayer, you have to like your chances when only 500 contestants are competing for 20 qualifiers -- 15 to the National Handicapping Championship and five to the Horseplayer World Series. It is without a doubt the best proposition of the year for tournament players." Players can find more information and register for the contest by visiting www.twinspires.com.

Same people or at least many of the top spots in these tournaments because of the data provider used, dominated by HTR and Bris users.

He mentioned to me that he relied on the Daily Racing Form for his work that weekend.

Hi guys,
Thanks for the kind words. Here is an article from our local paper, the Virginian-Pilot Ledger Star, in which Stanley and I were both interviewed. Winning the contest was realizing the dream of a lifetime. Unfortunately, while I have had a great year with daily play, my contest play has been less than stellar. I am still trying to qualify for this coming year. Here is the article: http://content.hamptonroads.com/stor...837&ran=107898 |
