Hopefully, everyone was able to survive without my daily Posts over the weekend! I think this tempo works a lot better and allows for some more interesting write-ups without stressing me out over a simple ‘accountability’ Challenge.
Day 22 had us firing back on track!!
It doesn’t take a genius to know that Photo Finish will probably lead the portfolio today… but let’s get to it!
Day 22 (Feb. 26th, 2024) Results:
Day 22 started off with a Bankroll of $606.23 , 3 Photo Finish Horses and 7 Zed Run Horses.
The “Sweepstakes” Casinos are an automatic daily bonus, easy enough to start there.
Sweeps Casinos:
I’d like to welcome a new “Sweeps Casino” to the mix — Global Poker!
Global Poker is a site I’ve played on forever (GP actually has decent Poker tournaments if you’re looking in that area), but since I had a Balance, I didn’t want to include its results in the Challenge.
Now, I was able to make a withdrawal and start at $0.00 — so we can include it easily!
Unfortunately — I doubled down on a Blackjack hand on Chumba AGAIN and lost so I lost another “impossible” dollar. Ugh.
- Pulsz – up $0.60
- Stake – up $0.84
- Chumba – DOWN $1.00
- Global Poker — up $0.25
Pokerstars:
I had a nice little run on Roulette on Pokerstars on Day 22 — accounting for a $1 win initially and I earned $3 off of a $1 bonus (the play-through was $12)… nice!
Pokerstars – up $4.00
FanDuel Sportsbook/Casino:
FanDuel had one positive and one negative on Day 22:
I lost a $3 IRL Racing Wager, but I made up for it with an $8 profit on Adebayo and Sabonis going for 40 PTS combined. Nobody was playing for the Heat, so I kind of figured this would be worth it.
FanDuel — up $5.00
DraftKings Sportsbook/Casino:
It was a very busy day on DK, as I’m trying to expand my options a bit:
- Baylor ML (up $4.27)
- 3-leg NCAA BB moneyline parlay (up $1.05)
- 3-leg NBA props parlay (down $1.00)
- various DFS – down a bit
All in all, I ended the day up $6.42, which I’ll absolutely take.
DraftKings — up $6,42
Zed Run: (sucks)
I actually bought a Zed Horse! It was capped at LVL 400 and with the removal of EVO coming soon, it was a chance to pick up a C2 at .002. Not a bad price if XP can stop collapsing.
Also…. what a weird partnership they decided to launch with Bum Ghost. Everything at Zed is catered to the smallest of smallest minnows … like they’re going after the 12-year old market or something. Arcade games and sweepstakes… (not like my nice ones above) It’s just not a good strategy. Yuck.
Zed Run — down $4.86 , up 1 Zed Horse
Photo Finish Live:
Another Win for Astral Avenger!!
He’s taken 5 Wins , 1 Place, and 2 Show finishes in his last 10 Races — an absolute HEAT CHECK for the A- Horse!
He was a $32 Purchase and he has made $298 in PROFIT (incl. CROWN) over the last 3 Weeks. I love my guy and I hope he can keep the streak moving over the next few seasons.
Photo Finish — up $49.57
ESPN Bet:
ESPN Bet is still super picky sometimes about how they offer their Promos. I legit have no idea who can understand their “Place a live NBA Bet, get a free $5 Bonus Bet” promo.
However, they offered up a free $10 if you played $10 on Lightning Roulette. That kind of stuff is what these Sportsbooks were doing 3-4 years ago… not in 2024. I absolutely love it.
ESPN BET – up $10.71
DNA Racing:
DNA Racing opened up Staking over the weekend! I have no idea what you get when you stake, but it’s helping the price of $DEZ to rise and I want to be staking — I know that for sure.
100% of my $DEZ is staked.
DNA — up $5.92
Coinbase:
Going to go back to the ‘listing the Balances’ method here:
- SOL $10.13 (5% APY)
- MATIC $5.58 (2.4% APY)
- ATOM $5.39 (9.2% APY)
Coinbase — up $1.24
Day 22 Summary:
Bum Ghost x Zed was stupid as hell.
My best PF Horse continues to be on a HEAT CHECK that I hope never ends.
ESPN Bet is offering nice Promos.
Sweeps Casinos can offer reliably daily upside (if you don’t lose doubling your 11 against a 7)
BRING ME PHOTO FINISH REFERRALS already!
Total for Day 22: UP $78.94
In total, the Challenge Bankroll stands at:
- $685.17
- 3 Photo Finish Horses
- 8 Zed Horses
