    $500 NBA Game for SBR Readers

    Hey guys just put our SBR NBA contest live. It'll run Wed night and has $500 in prizes up for grabs.

    There's an article that points to it in the lobby written by a player who's done pretty well on our site.

    Check it out here. I'm not sure how many contestants we can expect to enter so there will probably be some overlay/value to be had.

    Thanks for the contest but I'll pass as well since I only prefer to play the single entry ones. Since people can do 5 each though I'd think you'd fill it pretty easy

    Thanks for putting an entry in, Vikingsfan101.

    Single entry vs Multi entry is something we constantly weight when creating contests, and putting a 5-cap on it is sort of a compromise. Basically we want people to be able to play all the teams they want in a single contest, but we also recognize the importance of putting a limit on it. It's imperfect, but I will say that our biggest contests this year have all when won by single entries in multi entry contests. This includes our $250,000 NFL contest in Dec.

    You got them TT. We should probably see if we can run them off as a site sponsor. If you were fantasy mod there would be much better contests. I havent been in the SBR fantasy subforum much but they should probably look at making you a fantasy mod.

    Runitup is one of the DFS pros.

    No, the SBR contest was where I strayed from my normal lineup and entered a different one(did not pay off)

    I realize that. But are you only able to join the tournament if you are part of the forum or from the link they provided?
