Final Standings

Heading into the homestretch, Big Tuna had the commanding lead and Craft Brew had built a strong tiebreaker record.IN the fourth leg, there were only 7 games total to Pick from and only 5 with Player Hater point opportunities. Every Player Hater team lost this week, and the only Analysts to get Trifectas were those who played the long game.

The winner of Player Haters Preakness V is:

Big Tuna! In his first win since Season I in his otherwise illustrious career, Big Tuna jumped to an early lead and paced his way to the finish line with 3 Trifectas in the month. He wins Player Haters Preakness V!

For the Preakness, Craft Brew Claimed a solid thoroughbred and ran a steady race to Place after earning 3 Trifectas and 3 points total.

The Strategist, Wise Orangutan and Roxy Trot finished the Preakness with 2 points each. The Strategist shows with a head-to-head tiebreaker over Roxy Trot and more Correct Home Picks over Wise O. Roxy Trot (2 Correct Home Team Picks) finishes just out of the Winner’s Circle in fourth over Wise O. (1 Correct Home Team Pick).

B-Reezy, Little Tuna, Sponge Mom and Jimmy V end the Preakness with 1 Trifecta point. Jimmy V takes fifth place with a head-to-head tiebreaker over Sponge Mom and more Correct Home Team Picks than B-Reezy and Little Tuna.

Analyst of the Year V

After seven Trifectas in week 8, the Marathon of the Ass takes shape.

The Strategist continues to outpace the rest of the field with her 4th Trifecta and 18th Correct Pick of Season V. Big Tuna and Craft Brew, however, will not relent. Both have 3 Trifectas, with Big Tuna still clinging to second place with 17 Correct Picks and Craft Brew trailing by a head with 16 Correct Picks.

Each Analyst in the middle of the field has 2 Trifectas and opportunities to shake up the leader board in the next Crown Race. Roxy Trot maintains in fourth with 17 Correct Picks followed by Jimmy V in fifth with 16 Correct Picks. Tied for sixth, B-Reezy and Little Tuna are about a half length behind with 14 Correct Picks each.

Sponge Mom breaks from the back of the field with her 1st Trifecta and 13th Correct Pick to hold 8th place. Wise Orangutan falls into 9th with 1 Trifecta and 11 Correct Picks, within reach of The Bookie and Atwork who still seek their first Trifecta of the year.

Current Standings | PC-Fecta Derby V

Player Haters Preakness V | Standings | Leg 3 — Standings after Leg 3 of Player Haters Preakness V

Into the homestretch, Big Tuna has a two length lead over Craft Brew and Wise Orangutan. Analysts with 1 Trifecta point can catch Big with a perfect Player Haters Trifecta. Analysts with 0 points are not able to catch Big Tuna.

Scenarios

For the Win:

Big Tuna will eliminate all Analysts with a 2 point Trifecta (two Player Haters). A 1 point Trifecta eliminates all but Craft Brew and Wise Orangutan. He can also strengthen his position against most Analysts with a Correct Home Team Pick.

With 3 Correct Home Team Picks, Craft Brew is in position to best Big Tuna if he can tie Big Tuna at 4 or 5 points. Most Analysts will need Craft Brew to falter in the homestretch to clinch the Win.

Wise O. can force a photo finish on tiebreakers with a 2-point Trifecta. The Strategist, Roxy Trot, and B-Reezy will need to play for a Perfect Player Haters Trifecta to Win.

For the Place:

All Analysts are still in contention to place if no Analysts tie Big Tuna on points, but most Analysts must avoid a tiebreaker with Craft Brew. If Craft Brew earns points, then he strengthens his position. If Big Tuna holds onto his lead (and does not fall to second place) and Craft Brew falters, then:

The two exceptions are 1) Atwork whose Home Team can beat Craft Brew’s in a head-to-head competition this week so he only needs a 2-point Trifecta with a Packers victory and 2) The Strategist who can play for a tie with Craft Brew if she earns one more Correct Home Team Pick with the Panthers and Craft Brew does not.

All other Analysts must outscore Craft Brew with 3 or more points to Place over Craft Brew.

Wise Orangutan is a wildcard in both Win and Place scenarios. He can hold win, place, or show with a 3-point Trifecta or with a 2-point Trifecta and tiebreakers if the current leaders falter. Analysts seeking to come from behind for the Place also must hope that Wise O. does not earn a 1-point Trifecta with a Correct Home Team Pick.

And, of Course, Beware the Box Out!

Standings | Analyst of the Year V | Week 7

Analyst of the Year V

The Strategist is unable to keep up her blistering pace for the second straight week and finds herself in a tighter race. She still leads by a length (3 Trifectas and 15 Correct Picks), but now has three close challengers.

Big Tuna (2 Trifectas and 14 Correct Picks) clings by a head to second place. In third, Craft Brew (2 Trifectas and 13 Correct Picks) trails only by one head. B-Reezy (2 Trifectas and 12 Correct Picks) aspires to retake the AoY crown.

Among the Analyst with 1 Trifecta, Roxy Trot (14 Correct Picks) in fifth and Jimmy V (13 Correct Picks) in sixth continue to perform as well as the frontrunners.

Little Tuna is finding her stride mid-season with 11 Correct Picks and seventh place. Wise Orangutan moves in spurts with 10 Correct Picks and eighth place.

Three Analysts are staring the poo-flinging Monkey in the face: 0 Trifectas in the first seven weeks. Which one will earn at least one Trifecta (12.5% accuracy) in Week 8 ?!!?
