    Wimbledon Contest is Coming Friday!

    Have to wait until Friday after the draw for official thread because seeding matters. Total prize pool will be 10,000 Betpoints (5000 each for Mens and Womens).

    Here is the gist: You select 16 Men and 16 Women before the first match on Monday, but you may only include a MAXIMUM of 2 of the Top 4 seeds! There will also be seeding bonuses equal to seed/100 (so 1-seed adds .01 per round, 32-seed adds .32 per round).

    Scoring will be as follows (scoring will be cumulative, i.e., be added at each stage):
    Reach Round of 16: 1 point + seed bonus
    Reach Quarters: 2 points + seed bonus
    Reach Semis: 4 points + seed bonus
    Reach Final: 8 points + seed bonus
    Win Final: 16 points + seed bonus

    Seed bonuses remain static each round, so progression for 1-seed would be 1.01, 2.01, 4.01...etc

    All unseeded selections get .50 seed bonus

    Full details Friday after draw

    i much prefer the betpoints contests than the bitcoin contests


    fees are so high in bitcoin


    USOPEN 3rd place got $17 which after fees basically is nothing when you send it somewhere else


    im not complaining about the prize pool amount, just the fees associated with it because if you send t3 place to a book......you are screwed
