[King_Bookie]

Now that the playoffs are starting, and this is my first playoffs that I bet money in, why not find people who look for competition? It would definitely work for many of us much like what happened when me and HoulihansTX went head to head (we both posted winning records and were UP after the challenge). The same rules will apply:

1. Spreads only (no hook buying and quarter/half plays)
2. Plays must be posted BEFORE the start of the 1st game of the day.
3. 1 unit = $100 to prevent confusion
4. Winner will be based on percentage and number of games played.

No limit in the number of participants, just make sure that you're active for the playoffs.


Current Record:

King_Bookie 5 - 1

secret007 3 - 3

Vincepcion 2 - 3

007Fatty 2 - 2

Kyleben 5 - 3

dennisback 5 - 5

what are ur plays so far king_bookie. i just booked ceveland -12 had to take them before spread went higher. gotta love it

[King_Bookie]

I already put money on CLE -12. Too good an offer to pass up.

Im also leaning

Chi +9
Por -4

But it'll depend how things will pan out in the following days.

[007Fatty]

ill challenge you!!! lol

[HoulihansTX]

I applaud you for putting your challenge trophy on the line so quick. But after people check out our past challenge thread, they will not man-up and challenge you. While you are picking winners with regularity, and on a run. But I would like to see who is going to step-up, and have the balls to do so.

Fair warning to all, Bookie is far from a square. All yall that talk shit about others picks, this is a good time to put your credibility on the line. And put your picks on permanent record. Who's bold enough to do so??

[secret007]

i will take a shot just for fun.. i will post only my best pick.. how many games we are supposed to pick? one every day at least or what?

[Vincepcion]

I'll be up for the challenge, I had a good year (~56%, +88.5u) and I posted my plays on another forum. I haven't made a name for myself here but I would do it for fun.

[Kyleben]

Ill put my system plays up on here

[King_Bookie]

Thanks Houlihans, although there seems to be nowhere to go but down. I've heard only rarely that cappers post 60% winning rates in the long run. And I believe that I am no match for these people:

1. CK (I'm not wasting my time challenging him -_-)
2. Phoenix (resident over/under expert, wouldnt beat him if we played over/under)
3. DacVietBiet (I made so much money fading him when he posts his spread plays in the 4th quarter and I happen to be on the other side).

And the playoffs are entirely different from the regular season. Heck I wouldnt be surprised if San Antonio made it to the finals.


Players:

1. Vincepcion
2. 007Fatty(?)
3. secret007 (to answer your question: as many as you want, after all there are only a few games played on playoff days)
4. Kyleben(?) - I'm looking out for his system here, very dangerous.

[Kyleben]

are we playing o/u?

[King_Bookie]

Unfortunately, spreads only.

[secret007]

who is phoenix? i've never seen his post before?

so we play this till the end of nba final?

and what line do we use? early lines or the one that we have when we post the pick..

[King_Bookie]

Phoenix32, he's staying at CK's everyday thread just like me and posts O/U plays on a regular basis. The dude's got capping skills on O/U and I tail him when he does play it.

We play until the end of the finals and we will use all kinds of lines (early and/or the one that is in order when you post your pick). It's quite rare that lines move over 3 pts and the posting/editing time is a good enough evidence. I'll create a new thread before the playoffs officially start.

[HoulihansTX]

Gl to all. This should be good, especially if yall can get a 4-Way challenge going.

[frostno98]

60% will be very hard to maintain once you crossed that 100 game mark. I manage to cap 213 NCAA games at 58% before taking a hit in the final day of the regular college season. All my plays are document in my college thread, so no BS here.

[NBA Hero]

cle-12 will go down if you wait

[HoulihansTX]

cle-12 will go down if you wait

That's exactly why I jumped on Det +12 before it was history. Bookies made a mistake w/ that. Detroit has too many prideful vets.

Will the Public finally take a hit by taking Cleveland and Vegas get most of their money back comes playoff time. The Cavs are 50-32 Ats, making them up +16.20 units.

[oBaMa_MaNiA]

Here and ready for a challenge, Bookie!

[Laylow]

I'll give this a try.

If this happens, it would have to be SBR's first 10-way challenge. Crazy

I dub this the SBR ROYAL RUMBLE CHALLENGE.

This needs its own set of creative rules. Fellas make this happen, it will be better than a seeing car-wreck in real-time action. Truthfully

[lakerboy]
