Handicapping Contests

[Skidcom]

Now that we Americans are no longer eligible for the The Greek and Jamaica Pick 15 contests I thought I would shout out and find out which books are sponsoring handicapping contests this year. In addition to the venerable Beat The prick of course

Try the $200 buy-in Carib contest.

Try the $200 buy-in Carib contest.

This contest is a very good value. I've played it the last 2 years and won 5k going 10-0 in a week last year. Finished 43rd last year mostly because many were riding the overs all season long. Hopfully that won't happen this year.

Thegreek is not having the contest at all anymore, even for non-americans.

43rd is pretty good, what was your win % and what was the win % of the winner.

Also, does $200 get you into both contests or in addition to the $200, do you have to pay $15 to get into the weekly contest.

You're right about the value, what were the winning totals weekly? Anybody win a week going 7-3 or 8-2?

Thanks. I was 56.5% last year. $200 gets you into both contests. Weekly winner needs at least 9-1 or possibly 8-1-1 in which case you split the 5k with the players you're tied with, but if 3 people go 10-0 they each get 5,000. Winner last year was around 62%. You can check out all the past results on their site.

Are you from the U.S.? I tried signing up for this and couldn't. Every time I entered United States for country of origin, the application wouldn't go thru, WTF?
