THE SKINNY:

Previous to the start of Challenge year #11, or the start of the competition from two years ago, dbucc's Achilles heel over the course of his prior seven seasons had been his inability to connect on 6-point parlay winners, despite that he always produced best-bet winners like they were going out of style. But two years ago, in Challenge year #11, he finally found his parlay game and pounded out four overall 6-point parlay hits, three in the regular season and one in the postseason, and after maintaining his excellent best-bet handicapping--he went on to capture year #11's overall Bookie Challenge championship. In fact, because of his newfound parlay game, dbucc was also able to seize his first-ever divisional title, of which paid huge dividends in the playoffs because of his scoring advantages in the first-two rounds of that postseason. Entering last year's competition, dbucc was tabbed as the #1 ranked handicapper in last year's preseason rankings, and when considering that he had finally broken his parlay-hitting curse, he had an opportunity in last year's competition to become only the second handicapper in the history of the competition, besides the Biased Nihilist, to win consecutive Bookie Challenge championships. However, despite hitting two 6-point parlays last year, dbucc could not defeat neither Blitzkrieg nor 7mick7 in last year's heated battle for the Hail Mary divisional title. The reason the "Joker" didn't win his second consecutive divisional title last season took everybody off guard after dbucc registered his first-ever season in which he posted a losing best-bet record. As a consequence, dbucc will enter the 13th Annual Bookie Challenge as the 6th ranked handicapper in this year's preseason rankings. Still, the Challenge field had better not underestimate dbucc having a bounce-back season and once again getting the last laugh by winning his 2nd overall title.

PRESEASON RANK FOR YEAR #13 (2023 Season): #6 out of 14
