It was quite a beginning to Memorial Day weekend for Terry Jerge.
It was quite a beginning to Memorial Day weekend for Terry Jerge.
Memorial Day adds an extra day—and several important events—to the weekend featured-tourney lineup. There are 33 marquee games spread across the four days, including a $35,000 Guaranteed Pick & Pray on Monday.
Despite the fact that the bulk of the weekend featured tourneys were conducted in Live format (which some people think is a bit more chaotic), there were plenty of multiple winners on display. The week’s trend line showed itself right from the outset.
In addition to being one of the most fun tracks you could ever visit, Canterbury Park in Shakopee, Minn., has always been a big supporter of contest play. (No wonder so many top tournament players hail from the North Star State.) So we are delighted to now be able to welcome back the suburban Minneapolis […]
When the weather heats up, so, apparently does Scott Fiedler. Last summer, the 52-year-old sports camp director from Babylon, N.Y., won $248,000 in the second annual Spa & Surf Showdown. Two Saturday’s ago, Fiedler popped with a victory worth $12,943 in the week’s richest cash game. And this past week he was at it again.

Those who regularly play our featured schedules have a well-earned, collective reputation of being among the sharpest handicappers anywhere in the country. Part of what makes them a feared bunch is that when they are on their game, it doesn’t mean that they win just one event…they could win several by playing the same picks […]
You know the NHC is approaching soon when First Chance/Last Chance qualifiers start popping up. as they do this weekend. And you know the Preakness is approaching soon—once the Kentucky Derby has been run. We believe this keen sense of timing is on display throughout this weekend’s featured schedule, whose 28 marquee games get under […]
This space is decidedly prejudiced in favor of Judy Wagner. Whenever the “First Lady of the NHC” captures a grand prize, it gets top billing here, and the champion of NHC II in 2001 took home a key one on Friday.
If you are playing this weekend (and aren’t we all?), one tourney that should absolutely be on your agenda is Sunday’s 5-seats-guaranteed NHC qualifier. Why? Because it’s free—as long as you’re a 2021 NHC Tour member.
