Tim Catlett Rolls to $5,000 High Roller Payday

As with many of the larger tournaments on DerbyWars, players had several chances to qualify for an entry into Sunday’s $5,000 High Roller Tournament by successfully participating in less expensive games in hopes of securing an entry into the larger contest. This facilitates the chance for any DerbyWars player to have a fighting chance of winning even the largest sums of money offered on the tournament site.

One such qualifier, held early Sunday afternoon, propelled two players into the top two spots of the $5,000 High Roller Tournament, including eventual winner Tim Catlett (@tcat), who would take the $4,000 top prize.

The qualifier would see the end result reversed, with Jason Hill (@humanzee) besting his rival in the preliminary round by accumulating a bankroll of $74.60. Catlett’s initial haul of $59 was second best, but enough for the both of them to secure tokens into the big game later in the afternoon.

The tables would be turned, however, when the real money was on the line, due in no small part to Catlett’s procurement of ‘cap horse’ Golden Cheetah in the seventh contest race. Hill would have no such cap horses for the entirety of the game, and then would settle for second, roughly $16 behind the victor.

Catlett started playing DerbyWars about six months after the launch of the site and estimates he has been playing continuously for almost two years.

“It’s like a big puzzle that you try to figure out,” noted Catlett. “You have to look for prices and you can’t just play favorites. You can win or lose with bombs. Only play favorites if you cannot land on anything else.”

Catlett is a resident of Hedgesville, WV, roughly 100 miles outside of Washington D.C. His closest track is Charles Town, although that facility does not offer onsite handicapping contests.

He became interest in horse racing at age 11 when he came home from a baseball game and happened to catch the Belmont Stakes – and watched the Big Red horse win by 31 lengths. That Big Red horse, of course, was Secretariat.

Like several DerbyWars players, Catlett plans on coming to Louisville for next year’s Kentucky Derby. We’re excited to meet you in person at the DerbyWars headquarters, Tim!
