Bad day for me!! I had bases loaded so many times in TEX/CWS game. needed a big hit to bail me out but wouldn't come. I think I have to go dog's soon. I will try and hit a longshot Monday with the HRun contest. Any kind of interesting quirks you want to do while it is slow Mon-Wed. just suggest them here. Would like to make it fun at least.

WonTooManyBets · 07-12-08, 03:52 AM

Yeah I was watching the end of that TEX/CWS game, I thought you had that one. To add a little fun to the HR Derby each one of us can pick a player who we think will hit the most HR in the first round and if that player is the correct pick then that person gets +4 units or something like that. Let me know what you think.

BurtRapp · 07-12-08, 04:10 AM

sounds good. we'll hammer it out over the weekend and finalize something.

Sunday will be last day with a full board. I propose we be able to make more than 2 plays. I was thinking capping it at 6. You can still make 2 plays but have the oppurtunity to make up to 6. 1 unit still of course. Up to you if you want.. I don't like dictating rules especially when I'm losing. just thought we are not going to have much selection after this... let me know.

WonTooManyBets · 07-13-08, 03:18 AM

Sounds good. What do you want to do for the HR Derby?

BurtRapp · 07-13-08, 04:03 AM

We go head to head with a man for the first round. It is worth 2 units whoever has more HR's for the first round. There is a 3 unit bonus if your man happens to win the 1st round with the most HR's of anyone. Then you will have a pick for the whole contest which can be your man from the first round or someone else and pays actual odds like +250 or whatever his # is at BetJam. You will also have your regular (2) plays for the day if there is anything like Arena or WNBA.
What do you think??

BurtRapp · 07-13-08, 11:59 AM

I like those totals. was thinking about those myself.

WonTooManyBets · 07-13-08, 12:01 PM

BurtRapp · 07-14-08, 03:01 AM

I want Josh Hamilton For my first round heads up match up.
I want Lance Berkman for the entire contest. Odds will be updated in morning. Lines not available.

WonTooManyBets · 07-14-08, 03:48 AM

Sounds good bro, I'll make my selections tomorrow.

BurtRapp · 07-14-08, 12:45 PM

First round play is just a heads up play. No unit risked. Just 2 units added to winner no loss to loser. Bonus if your man wins the first round overall.
Your wager for the whole contest will be a 1 unit play. My contest player is Berkman at +400.
Remember these are side bets an you can still play your regular 2 plays for the day if you want. Good Luck.

WonTooManyBets · 07-14-08, 01:16 PM

Chase Utley 1st round.
Chase Utley to win HR Derby. +475

How much is the bonus if the player wins first round overall?

BurtRapp · 07-14-08, 01:55 PM

Your guy wins 2 units. he wins 1st round all around and it is 3 more units.
I'm adding WNBA later.

WonTooManyBets · 07-14-08, 02:05 PM

What about if one of our guys ties for the lead overall in 1st round?

BurtRapp · 07-14-08, 02:13 PM

I think that would be good enough for the bonus . Technically if you tie you are the leader. We can do the 3 or if it's a tie 1.5 . just let me know - whatever you want.

BurtRapp · 07-14-08, 02:37 PM

Sparks -4
Sparks/SStars over 145

WonTooManyBets · 07-14-08, 02:43 PM

Do I need to make picks for today? Is there anything besides that one WNBA game?
