    SBR MMA CONTEST 2011/2012





    UFC 139
    UFC 140
    UFC 141
    UFC 142


    In this contest you will have $1000 to wager for each individual event. The rules for picking are as follows:

    1. You must pick a minimum of 3 fights from the odds listed.
    2. You must wager at least $200 on 3 fights (You can bet as many fights as you want, however at least 3 wagers need to be of $200 or more).
    3. You must pick from the odds listed (I will exclude the huge favorite vs huge underdog matchups...).
    4. Standings will be based on profits or losses. The original $1000 to wager with is not counted in scores.
    5. You must list what you wager, the line, and what the profit would be. Example: Jon Jones -185, $370 to win $200.
    6. Picks must be submitted for each event by the time specified.

    Post 105 Points to this post and then make sure your picks are in by the time specified. The 5 extra points are for me to cover the "tax" when I transfer out the points to the winners. Winnings will be split 65% and 35% for 1st and 2nd. If we have more than 15 people it will be split 60%, 30%, 10% for 1st through 3rd.

    odds for UFC 139 will be posted tomorrow afternoon - should give you all enough time to knock out a few over Brittney first! I've had to leave out the TUF finale as I'll be in Egypt week leading up to that event so probably won't be posting on here during that week.

        If you send the winners points in a message I don't think you'll be charged anything for it.

                    Not in a PM, right on the forum.

                      That way still subtracts points. It just doesn't show up in that message. When you look at your points breakdown you'll see that the tax has been taken out. So I still think everyone needs to send 105 to Vaughany.

                        Is it somewhere other than the main log? I don't see anything indicating that, I had 1783 points last night, +12 for logging in 1795, -105 sent to vaughany makes 1690.

                        I don't see it on any other post I've given points for either.

                              No shit!! I had no idea that they got rid of the tax. When I did the last contest I lost a bunch of points from all the transfers. Good news.

                                Another naive question: Do we need to be pro to join the contest?

                                If not -- I'M IN!

                                    I guess I'll donate my points for this one too. Good luck guys.

                                      If you are not a pro I think you have a transfer limit of 2 points per 24 hour period or something like that. Kind of sucks. Maybe if people want in Vaughany will do something like Hoff did and let them pay the 2 points daily until they get the full amount paid or something. Someone should PM a mod and see if we can set it up for the non pros.

                                          Yeah, I'm not a scumbag like this guy, so I'm good for my word. I don't know what we're talking about, though.

                                            Nice to see someone beside Hoff run one of these. Maybe we can do more of them.

                                              Does anyone want to back me? I have 5600 points at the moment and I'll probably go pro soon. I'll pay back 2 points per day until I go pro and we can add some interest if you want too. Let me know if anyone is interested.

                                                          I'm game. Nice work V

                                                          Someone throw me 110 points so I can hedge a 300 point pending parlay I have.

                                                          I can pay you back tomorrow after the college football game.

                                                            Thanks V.

                                                            I'll talk to Dozer tomorrow about possibly sweetening the pot with an extra few hundred points from sbr.

                                                                    Or do the winnings (and losts) carry over from event to event? In other words, if you're up $300 from event 1 -- do you start event 2 with $1300?
