    Agreed a 95-5% split is not really in the spirit of a "team entry"

    It really should be a mandatory 50-50 split or at minimum 75-25...

    If Mr. Leisure wants to give 95% of winnings to Daniel Espinosa for his picks that would work. But is also against forum rules from what I understand.

    I’m thinking the rule was set in place for a 50/50 team split. Could possible see 33/33/33 with 3 players but anything less is abusing the system

    Any unequal split is a scam.

    Really anyone that wants a full entry should get one and the rest of the field should be with teams. I assume teams were allowed in the past to fill the field. If you have 80 people that want in by a certain deadline, they should get in unless they do not have a full entry already.

    Ideally, you should have full entry and those that cannot afford a full entry or are not willing can partner and that is equivalent to a full entry. You should not be able to double dip when the site is putting in money. Everyone should get an equal chance at the contest.

    I see your point now. You think Espinoza is scamming the system not Mr. Leisure. I would assume.

    They are both scamming. Mr. Leisure wants to free ride on Daniel. He is getting something for nothing. Daniel is getting an extra entry at the expense of someone else. You should only have full entries and partnerships. If you are partnered, you cannot have a full entry. If there are not 80 entries then it is just more for those that participated.

    Yeah but Mr. leisure is getting a 5% cut not much. It's Espinoza who is getting almost a full ride on his 2nd entry. Big difference

    Yeah, he is just getting what he thinks is a good deal and allowing Daniel to double dip the contest.

    Yep you make a valid assertion should be a min 75/25 split IMO.

    If you give away $10K and you do not get 80 entries, you have a shitty contest.

    you are one of the good guys Mr. Leisure. on the forum. always willing to lend me points. I appreciate that. It's not you that is getting a free ride. but yeah maybe you can up the ante a bit if you and Espinoza agree. good luck.

    Yes, my comment was in reference to someone having their own entry and 95% of another. That's basically getting 2 entries all to yourself and abusing the rules...just my .02

    Mr Leisure all good but Espinoza an angle shooter.

    Just setting up a bad precedent here. When I played with Mpash we split the picks evenly and then decided on the stars. Espenozas in essence getting 2 entries.

    I don't think there are any rules. There is 1 entry per solo and 1 entry per team. My interpretation of that would be that you can be solo or you can be a team. Teams are equal to solos. It is up to the site if they want to allow an extra entry in this way. In the past maybe they have done that. It is not a very good way to run a contest but this site does a lot of stuff that is not all that smart.

    Obviously, people should be able to team if they do not want a solo entry. If you are short on entries, maybe you allow some double dipping. If you are short on entries though, you might want to rethink how you give away $10,000.

    yeah good points. for sure SBR wants the contest to fill. never had a problem in the past that I can remember. But at one time you could join as many teams as you wanted. Then they changed to this format. Guess it is what it is. No worries.

    Yes, I agree, while that technically may be within the rules as written, it's not in the spirit of being a real "team".

    I mean I would like to effectively have two full entries myself - nothing against my teammate, but this is a very generous contest with a huge overlay, of course I would be maximizing my EV to effectively have two full entries like Espinosa rather than 1.5

    Not sure something should be done about it since, as written, it is within the rules, but I think most would agree the rule about what constitutes a real "team" should perhaps be reevaluated in future years if nothing else.
