Puss in Boots? Really? C’mon, Jeopardy! – you are so much better than that.
Long-winded cartoon characters aside, this is some run of champs we’ve been having as of late, huh? Greg Seroka is about to become our fourth 4xer since March 11, when Kristin Sausville began her run.

I’m not going to spend much time on this, using this space instead to mention my latest Fact Primer. It’s on parimutuel wagering, used in horse races. I got a handicapper friend to give some hot takes for this Saturday’s Kentucky Derby, too!
You can find all of that here.

Both of our trailers wagered improperly. Greg, on the other hand, jumps to six-figure territory ($108,200). Congrats to him – we’ll see if he can lock up #5 tomorrow.
Speaking of #5, Alex Jacob picked this week’s theme color – a perk I offer all five-timers. (Actually, he let his fiancée make the selection.)
