Week 15 Recap: Winners & Losers
Winners
Chris B. Corey rode the Eagles’ improbable final second cover to a perfect week and now has a comfortable $1,100 lead on the rest of the East with two weeks to go. Also of note, Donnie Jeffcoat is making a late season run with three straight $500 weeks. He’s just $600 out of the final playoff spot….Bud Fox won $400 and is pulling away from the North. He’s up $1,400 and also still holds his wild card….Neon Boudeaux won $500 and is staying close to the top of the three man race in the South….And in the West, it’s coming down to The Beard of Zeus and Babe, who both continue to gain money. The Beard has the upper hand and his wild card bet available. It looks like one will win the West and the other should be in good shape to make the postseason with a wild card berth.
Losers
Yaz lost his wild card and likely ended his 2019 campaign. Patrick Bateman and The People’s Champ both lost $500 and slipped down the standings….T-Ferg‘s meteoric rise came to a screeching halt in Week 15, as he lost $500 and now is clinging to the final playoff spot. The Notorious ABT also went winless. He’ll have to hit on his wild card bet these last two weeks to make a postseason push….Rick Moranis dropped $500 and has an uphill climb to try to get into the playoffs. The Big Hurt’s roller coaster season seems to have come to an end with a -$500 week….And Shecky continues to ride the Browns into the depths of despair.

Chris B. Corey didn’t lose much this week, but had his chance to pull away from the rest of the East and stay in the overall race….The Notorious ABT slipped down the standings and is on the outside looking in via percentage points tiebreaker right now.
