Is back-to-back Hilton Contest champ Fezzik done for 2010?

From Chad Millman’s Super Tuesday column on ESPN Insider:

“At this point, the amount of equity I have left in the contest is not worth the time it would take for me to invest in researching my picks anymore,” Fezzik says. “I will lose money if I spend time doing that instead of researching better bets elsewhere. I definitely would not be following my picks when they are announced on Saturday morning. It’s professionally embarrassing for my ego, but a lot of this is luck. For the past two years I’ve been incredibly lucky. This year, less so.”

Fezzik is the only back-to-back champion in the 20-year history of the Las Vegas Hilton SuperContest, winning each of the last two years.

Do you think he’s done? Will you keep betting his picks?
