MCRI (short). Monarch Casinos & Resort Inc. Chart looks like a "triple top" has formed and stock may take a breather next week. Will take a short chance. |

kadee....I am short MCRI and it is down nicely, at least for one day. I'm afraid it will reverse upward if the market turns positive. |

Kadee, my horse is just sensitive to the extremely hot summer weather. The basement is so much cooler now in June & July. Surely, you didn't think he was there because of his racing skills ….. LOL. |

kadee73, I've left a message to send me an update but I have not received one at this time. I think I would have been notified by now if there were any significant change but I know the family was getting to the point of exhaustion when I left on Saturday.

Uuhhoh, Uncle is now holding my place...Arch you snuck out!
Clark, sure hope there is improvement. I know how exhausting having someone in the hospital can be, or even at home & needing 24/7 care. Keeping my fingers crossed for good results for him and some rest for the family.

Clark,... that sounds like improving NEWS. Prayers to all your family. Kadee, I lost the internet late yesterday afternoon. I use Newwave. No computer all night. Just turned it on. Working. Probably "overnight" maintenance of some sort. |

The new statistics page will have the return column first. The last two columns are new. Points are scored using the formula 3*wins+2*places+shows+>benchmarks therefore the best score in points would be the 4 point average for winning and beating the benchmark.
PPG are the total points divided by games played.

For the purpose of points and ppg, I am awarding the benchmark an additional half of a point per game because while it does not ever beat itself it never loses to itself either. This will make it easier for a player to compare themselves to the benchmark in these categories. | 2018 | results | | Name | Return | Games | Win | Place | Show | >Bench | points | ppg | | architecto25 | 0.97 | 26 | 6 | 5 | 4 | 13 | 45 | 1.73 | | tyfighter3 | 0.95 | 5 | 1 | 0 | 0 | 1 | 4 | 0.80 | | kadee72 | 0.87 | 26 | 7 | 3 | 3 | 12 | 42 | 1.62 | | clarkrl2 | 0.66 | 26 | 4 | 9 | 3 | 16 | 49 | 1.88 | | BenchMark | 0.30 | 26 | 0 | 5 | 10 | 0 | 33 | 1.27 | | Value Buy | -0.58 | 3 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 | | Mod E | -1.25 | 26 | 1 | 1 | 5 | 6 | 16 | 0.62 | | uncle.23 | -2.61 | 26 | 7 | 3 | 1 | 12 | 40 | 1.54 |
