RULES:
- Month-by-Month contest, beginning in April and running through July, 2007.
- Moneyline and Total bets only.
- Minimum 20 plays per month to be eligible for the monthly prize; Maximum 30 plays per month. Maximum three plays per day. All plays will be graded as one unit wagers.
- Lines will be posted from 5Dimes, and once posted the lines will not be adjusted. All bets have action regardless of changes in starting pitcher(s). Every effort will be made to post the day's lines as soon as possible after 12 Midnight EDT.
- A post made is a bet laid. All edited posts will be graded as a loss. All past post (picks made after listed start time of game) will be graded no action. The official clock is the time posted on the play here at SBR. Pushes count as a play. Rainouts and other 'acts of God' cancellations are graded as No Action. If a player fails to reach their minimum plays needed for prize consideration due to a rainout/cancellation on the FINAL DAY OF THE MONTH, then the player shall still be eligible for said prize consideration.
- A prize or choice of prizes will be awarded to the player with the most units won during the month. All prizes for the next month will be posted by the 28th of the preceding month. In addition to the monthly grand prize, the top three (3) winners each month will each receive an SBR shirt. In case of a tie resulting in more than three winners, all who finish in first, second and third for the month shall receive a shirt.
- In case of a tie for the month’s grand prize, a ‘sudden death’ tiebreaker will take place beginning on the first day of the following month, action permitting. All players tied will make one moneyline pick per day until the tie is broken, each player MUST make a play on the first day of the month, any and all action permitting, and any player in the tiebreaker who does not post a play on the first day of the following month shall be deemed out of the tiebreaker process. Tiebreaker plays will NOT count towards the next month’s contest.
- While all SBR members are eligible to play, the following restrictions for prizes apply:
- No employee of SBR is eligible for any prize or prizes. In the event that an SBR employee finishes a month with a bankroll that would qualify for a prize, the player with the next highest eligible bankroll shall be deemed the winner.
- Monthly winners with less than 50 posts at time of prize announcement will receive a half-prize (example, half the value of the top prize gift certificate). Posters with 50+ posts will receive the full prize or choice of prizes as listed before the month begins.
- All contestants must be 18 years or older. Entries limited to one per household and one per IP address.
- Check your selections carefully before posting. The rules stated above regarding edited/past posting will be strictly enforced. SBR may deny entry or prizes for any contestant without cause and rules may be modified without prior notice.
For April, the grand prize is a $250 Gift Certificate at the MLB.com shop OR a 19” flat screen monitor. Contest begins this Sunday with the initial Mets-Cardinals game that kicks off the MLB Season. And all plays will be posted in the CONTEST FORUM. Good luck to all, and above all else, have fun.
Contest lines will be autoposted by Ganchrow and all wins/losses will be graded by SBR member LT Profits. If you have any questions or concerns, please direct them to either LT Profits or Willie Bee. - No employee of SBR is eligible for any prize or prizes. In the event that an SBR employee finishes a month with a bankroll that would qualify for a prize, the player with the next highest eligible bankroll shall be deemed the winner.
