One wrong bet today for @dwixer, who is now joined by @shamzy at the top of the ranking. Only his speed of bets throughout the tournament allows him to maintain the first position (for nowtm)
Not far behind them, we find @josediccus holding the third position with 33 badges. He shares that score with @ynwa.andree who fell off the top 3.
As you can see, the betting speed factor now unfolds its full effect and will probably play a decisive role for the rest of the competition.
