Kyle Burton Wins 2015 Hastycapping Title
After a strenuous 16 week contest where eleven handicappers were forced to look at and fictionally wager on a select amount of races, Kyle Burton (@PotassiumBoron) claimed victory in the first edition of Hastycapping.
Taking the lead in the seventh week of the contest, a position only held by two other handicappers (Doug McPherson & Mike Bilinskas), Kyle managed to both grow and sustain the top spot, having a peak bankroll of $1,045.98 (after week 11). After week 11, despite a losing streak that extended through the end of the contest, Kyle held onto the lead over the closest challenger Jeff Courchesne (@JRCourchesne), who dipped into a negative bankroll in week 10 (in 4th place) and quickly gained ground to take second. Host of North American Harness Update Ray Cotolo (@HarnessRaycer) was third.
Here are the final standings for the 2015 Hastycapping Contest:
