Final 2022 ROI Results

[Real Quiet]

DonGuido was the big winner in the 2022 ROI to cap a big year overall. Don finished $2516 up with an ROI of 64%. NJ Stinks in an abbreviated season had a profit of $1075 and an ROI of 50%. The other player to show a profit was Cal who finished up $189 with an ROI of 4%. Not easy to be profitable over 49 weeks so congrats to all three. Don also set a new record with 10 ROI weekly wins. It took 14 years for someone to hit double digits so kudos to Don. Digger had 6 wins and 4 players added 5. Only Indian Hemp and Real Quiet had a plus $1000 week so you can see Don did it consistently all year without a top five scoring week. 4 players showed up every week and 9 of us played 45 weeks or more so our group is small but dedicated to handicapping.

Since 2009 we have played 696 weeks. That's when I started but a few players were here before me. I lead the pack with 72 wins but Ruffian and NJ Stinks have a better win percentage. Ruff has 65 wins, Joly B has 52 and NJ Stinks has 47. Don also has 47 wins and Plenilune has 46. I still think the hardest thing to do is to be long term profitable and one player still is. Digger was around in 2009 and at our end of the 2022 season is still profitable. He is still ahead almost $500 and has an ROI of about 2%. That is impressive betting tracks all over North American, every distance and surface and usually not tracks of his choosing. Way to go Digger. Nicely played. Cal's year has moved him into the top ten dropping Ruffian one spot. Guess you know by now I like to track stuff so I'll add just a few more odds and ends and leave you alone. The Jacques Who award still belongs to Joly B with his 74 second place finishes. If you watch a reply when the wire approaches JB is usually in the photo always looming. And congrats to Cal on winning the 2022 Gallivan Cup. Don has 5 so you have your work cut out for you in the future. See you all Saturday.
