Seriously...Who here is handicapping their way to last place in BTP?

[Bill Dozer]

$1000 up for grabs for last place. If you are out of contention for the Final Standings prize, are you picking against the team you like?

[Chi_archie]

Jmobile?

[Domestic]

I may end up making a run, have hit just two of ten best bets so far.

[BigDeem5]

I'm trying to get last

[no1here]

knew nothing of the grand up for grabs, I work very hard at making my picks trying to win,

[King Mayan]

I'm trying really really really hard, Dozer..

[tatddy]

I'm trying to get last

Yeah you are now...

As the person in dead last, I am trying to stay there now, Football not my thing anyway, so I got this wrapped up.

Got some competition with wquine, borednaz, no1here, and a few others.

[CarpeDime]

and what's the strategy? Just "keep on keepin on"? or do you actually try to fade your best bets which have proven to actually be the worst bets of the entire contest? kind of a mindfuk

[playersonly69]

Well who did you take this week so we can fade?

[borednaz]

Yup Stiky knows I'm gunning for him. And Tonight my 2x is Ohio so I'm playing it as Square as possible.

[Boner_18]

wow. didn't know this. I'm in the running.

Actually Carpe, I go over to Covers and look at their Experts picks.. Then I go with them. It's been quite successful as you can see below.

My biggest problem is every week I hit my 2x usually. I don't know how you Hamburgers miss yours.

LOL Ohio is my 2x. so you make up no ground my friend.

[minet123]

[stikymess]

Well who did you take this week so we can fade?

Ohio -2
Texas St +19.5
UAB +3

[borednaz]

I have Ohio -2. 2x
The under 48.5 on that game.
The over 42pts in Thursday nights NFL game.
And I'm considering either The Pats or Steelers laying double digits.

[spankie]

Had a good start at it, not now though...

[tto827]

IF you are in contention for last, don't start betting the opposite of what you think, or you will actually start doing well.

[Bill Dozer]

It's good to see how many are gunning for it if you are one of those people. My advice, pick numbers that moved early in the week and grab the bad side.

Going to LOSE These two .. That will make me 0-3 this week so far.. EAT IT STIKY

[secretstash]

1000th place was supposed to pay 1k not (last).. yes I realize when u took the non pros out that there is no 1000th but I was hovering around 1000th for weeks now and lost my btp fp's due to trying to stay there

(of course i was just sucking in the contest)

but man now i have no shot at 1kth place

Not so fast my friend, nice total there lol!

[Gruntworker]

OMFG... I thought I was going for (inadvertently) 1000th place... then I just checked the standings. Didn't realize that there were that many non-pros in it!!! I'm in no man's land now. There was a $500 for 500th place right? Hmmm... LOL!

GL to the leaders!

[borednaz]

Not so fast my friend, nice total there lol!

You Sob!

[mike1234]

I'm almost there - and not trying to be - pathetic year

[no1here]

you tell me, I have no ideal and having a hard time with this. Now knowing of the prize I am claiming it.

I could sure use some help from the ones that I owe here. I do respect your thoughts guys and do have you in my mind daily. If I can manage to win I will try to pass prize money on to one of you or be paid in points instead. Chances are neither is available though. Good luck to me but not a clue as what to do except to lose. But How?

[SweetSpot]

No1here you are a great guy but I hope you,stiky, and wquine 5-0 weeks from here till the end. No one should have to go dead last. It was fun sweating out games hoping to beat the prick.

[no1here]

Moved 4 units which is huge! wquine is horrible and scares me greatly. Be glad to change places with you stash, make it happen. As it sits I see restless nights for awhile which sucks. Thanks for the kind words and thoughts SweetSpot. The battle for last is way more competitive then the battle for first with a long way to go. Good Luck stikymess, may you win many!

[Br0nxer]

Wow. last place gets a 1000 bucks

[Br0nxer]

It's good to see how many are gunning for it if you are one of those people. My advice, pick numbers that moved early in the week and grab the bad side.

Trying to end up with the #500 spot - working out ok so far
