My money is on Ivey or Shulman to win it all once the odds are posted. The only person this 6 month period is Moon . Look what happend to Dennis Phillips . Once Ivey or Schulman doubles and/or triples up its all over but the crying.

I meant to say the only person this 6 month period HURTS is Moon. His run of sick cards came to an end 3 nights ago.
