Win Cash and Punch Your Ticket to Vegas this Saturday!

The 4th Annual TwinSpires Online Handicapping Championship takes place this Saturday, November 29 and will award $50,000 in cash and 50 Vegas Seats to the top 50 finishers. You can join an expected field of 550 or more entries who will be competing for a top prize of $10,000 and one of 20 seats to the 2014 National Handicapping Championship.

Just three years ago, Michael Beychok parlayed a 3rd place finish in our Championship into a $1,000,000 payday in the 2012 NHC. You could be next!

• The following tiebreakers will be used to break any tie for the final NHC and/or final HPWS Prize package, as follows: (in order): most winners, most top 2 finishers, highest win payoff, 2nd-highest win payoff, 3rd-highest win payoff, most top 3 finishers. If a tie still exists after using the finish positions of all selections, the highest total odds of all selections (among those still tied) will be used to break the tie. In the event a tie is still not broken, the remaining players still tied may be asked to participate in a "playoff". TwinSpires will make the final decision on any disputes or unforeseen circumstances involving ties.
