        - Time till end of NBA season to make 100 picks
        - Game spreads and Game totals allowed
        - 1st/2nd half spreads and totals allowed
        - NO quarter bets as its not available in all books
        - NO parlays and teasers
        - NO exotics and props
        - NO moneylines
        - NO alternate spreads and live bets
        - NO team totals

        To summarize, the only bets allowed are game spreads/totals and half spread/totals.

        - Any person cannot post the same bet as the other person. Whoever posts the pick first, has the "right" at that pick. Other person cannot copy that pick or other "variations" of that pick. Example: If person A posts lakers -10, then the other person cannot take same pick or lakers 1st half or lakers 2nd half. This prevents the other person from just copying.

        - All the lines should be from Pinnacle at that particular time. Lines will be matched against sbr odds.
        - You get 10 max bets for 3 units each. All other 90 bets are 1 unit each.
        - Each person is responsible for keeping track of his record.
        - All bets should be posted before kick-off
        - You have to make all 100 picks before the end of the NBA season
        Read the rules.

              Lion, how confident are you in the Denver +4.5 first half play? Denver is coming off of a tough OT win and playing on the road (where they are pretty bad) against one of the best home teams in the league.

                    Yeah, might have been a stupid question, but I was just curious on the rationale behind the pick

                            Stephen Curry is out. So, I am cancelling my warriors bet. Note that I am cancelling well before the tip-off.

                                    that Heat 2nd half counts. no where in the rules does it say you can't take 2nd half if you don't take the game. update the record and i'm gonna go back to make sure it's right when i come back here next time.

                                      There is no hedging. Just cancel. If there is a major injury, you can cancel before tip-off. Any bets are final only at the tip-off. Read Comment #1. I am not hedging...I am cancelling.

                                            Vyommer you're being ridiculous. You already made your play. Sucks that curry is out but you gotta ride it out. That's how it works in gambling.

                                                    Goat, no variations.
                                                    Lion, when u place a bet it is final just like in real life.

                                                      Where was the rule stated that a bet can be cancelled? Certainly didn't see it in post #1.

                                                        you can't cancel a bet after the line shifted 2 points. you want to play this like real life. you can't cancel a bet at pinny even if you placed it 2 days before gametime. the bet stands. it won't be canceled. that's final.

                                                        thanks.
