The standings are also now fixed up at the actual contest page, so you can view number of picks made, action points etc, in easier fashion.

good stuff lou

I see this stipulation:

Must submit a Bodog account that has at least one deposit in its history, or a deposit made prior to December 25th.

Does that mean that a lot of those players are likely to get DQed.

5th to last...where's that boobie prize? ;-)

I would still be interested in an answer to this question.

Nice now it is sorted by action points... I placed all my wagers before I left for the holiday's as I was unsure I would make it onto SBR to place them all week.

Boner_18 · 12-30-09, 02:08 PM

Anyone have an answer for Mudcat's ?

didn't see that.... so its too late to even deposit now for some of those top players?

Yes, it's dynamic. If you go to the contest page you'll notice the leaderboard is the same as in the original post.

Lou, can you answer mudcat's question?

The top 10 prizes will be paid to those that followed the sign up term, correct.

The rule is not there for show.

In addition to being on the contest side-bar, the prize eligibility was plastered in the official contest thread: http://forum.sbrforum.com/handicappi...rize-pool.html

Must submit a Bodog account via SBRpicks software that has at least one deposit in its history including any time prior to your first contest pick.

does a BTP deposit count?

Mudcat · 12-31-09, 12:55 PM

LOL! Maybe if I reword the question:

Lou, should we assume that all the names on that list have made their deposits to Bodog as stipulated in the rules for qualifying?

SBR Lou · 12-31-09, 12:56 PM

Any Bodog deposit by December 25th counts. It could have been made months ago.

Mudcat · 12-31-09, 01:01 PM

Odd, it's not letting me edit my previous post.

So let's see if we can narrow this down further. Do we assume all those names on the list have made the qualifying deposit? Or are you just leaving all the names there and will see who actually qualifies at the end.

So therefore someone who looks like they're in 30th place may actually be in 10th.

Get what I'm asking?

good question, I think that is up to the book... any promotional money like contest winnings or Freeplays bought from SBR store. never seem to count with books...

with good reason

No, there likely is a percentage that joined without adhering to the rule. Bodog will verify eligibility of the winners at the conclusion of the contest.

Correct, having a sportsbook credit contest winnings does not count as depositing to a sportsbook.

Mudcat · 12-31-09, 02:19 PM

Not that I am in close contention - but I myself am not eligible then. I didn't notice the rule when I signed up.

I would guess there are probably a bunch of people in the same boat.

Chi_archie · 01-01-10, 11:56 AM

the contest isn't for money at bodog, its for points. So is the stipulation, because Bo-dog pays SBR a fee to "buy" the points and give them out essentially?

I'm not sure I understand the reason for having to have had funded a bodog account to win SBR points?

Mudcat · 01-01-10, 12:08 PM

Seems weird and arbitrary.
