Hear ye hear ye hear ye! SBR presents The Hawk's NCAA Bowl contest! $5,000 cash 1st

[milwaukee mike]

i will stake you. you seem like a sharp guy.

what would stop you from keeping the whole prize to yourself tho if u win? i doubt the mods would get involved.

we would have to work out some conditions first, 2500 points is serious business.

wow got a taker quickly.

i would be willing to be staked too by anyone, 70/30, you put up the 2500 and keep 70% of cash/points. i would also agree not to enter with any other group.

the only college football contest i'm in is dsi, i'm running 6th out of 491 with a record of 118-82

[dodger33]

Do you have to form a team or can you go alone... I am in either way

you ditched me already????

[downsouth]

I wasn't really expecting to have any takers on this but figured I would throw it out there and see if i got any bites..other than ttwarrior and yisman, I doubt you will find many, if any on sbr with a bad thing to say about me. I live my life honestly regarding business and am the type to always pay debts immediately. It would have to be on the honor system, so you would have to weigh the risk of that into your decision. Either way, all good and I hope all is well back in NY.

Of course peavy if you dont get staked I will happily lend you the points to take a stab at it.

Just shoot me a pm if you want to discuss.

[downsouth]

Its like you never meant anything at all.

[shari91]

Its like you never meant anything at all.

story of my life

[milwaukee mike]

you ditched me already????

not at all, i know nobody will stake me.


you know i'll be on my knees begging you for that 2500 points on december 16th

[trytrytry]

nice gesture Im one of I think 3 that played in this every year..i..only contest Ive never cashed in..shrink beat me out for 3rd on the last game one year....it was a $1000 buy in first handful of years, then dropped to $500...and less last year I recall...at one point and Pinny might have been involved even WSEX kicked in some bonus $ in the early days..that is the Standard of all Forum contests in my opinion....

[trytrytry]

How many people do you suppose will enter this? 20? 40? 80? 150?

33 entries

[trytrytry]

Sounds interesting. Only top 3 payout or depending how many play?

u cant change perfection..also the lines are posted in a thread everyone gets the same lines...u can PM your picks if you want or just post them in a thread..ties are 1/2 point...no tiebreakers involved either..

[BigDeem5]

I'll say over 40 entries at +120

[BigDeem5]

If I had to put a # on it I'll say 58

[shari91]

not at all, i know nobody will stake me.

No need to beg darling. I can't win and there are very few times I'd be more than happy to trust someone else with my pts... charity or something like this for a forum legend.

So if you do need them let me know. Not the same as my playing but I'll have a blast cheering for everyone in it. (However you better cash or I'll bloody smash you!)

[Louisvillekid1]

Non pros can put up points if they join a team?

[JAKEPEAVY21]

Of course peavy if you dont get staked I will happily lend you the points to take a stab at it.

Just shoot me a pm if you want to discuss.

I'll hit you up later, thanks.

Shari shoot me a text, lets talk sponsorship

[Wrigley]

point loan sharks will be getting plenty of action in the sbr points forum

[milwaukee mike]

point loan sharks will be getting plenty of action in the sbr points forum

and there will be so many side bets on this...

interesting that the poker tournament with huge points payoffs is december 15th. poker tables might be crazy on the 16th if guys want to roll over 15,000 or 20,000 poker points

[BIGDAY]

I have the points, it's just that 1250 just seems so much more willing to throw out the window lol.

[BIGDAY]

I'll most likely wait until the week of to decide.

[k13]

Thought it was 2500?

I have the points too thanks to your team...lol

Not sure if it worth the variance.

[BIGDAY]

K13. Agreed. Feel like I'd be donating them. But that is a pretty decent top 3 prize.

[BIGDAY]

Oh, that's what I meant about the 1250. By teaming with someone.

[CanuckG]

In talks right now with a few sharps lets see if we can make things work.

[LVHerbie]

[k13]

Story Time, I was in a College Football Bowl Contest a few years back on CBS, a free one so millions of entrants.

I was 1st in the world the whole time, needed Buffalo to beat Uconn to clinch 1st and $10 000.
Line was steaming big on Uconn, knew they lose just to penetrate me so I hedged a couple grand on Uconn.
Buffalo was winning 20-10 and obviously lost 48-20....

So I finished 2nd overall out of millions of people.


(insert cool story bro pic)

I'll take 50% of the stake if you want.

[MexicanStallion]

If only I had the points and was any good at College Football

[Duff85]

I am also looking for a stake in this event. Selling at no mark up.

[BIGDAY]

CanuckG, I haven't received a text from you yet???

[CanuckG]

Yeah you know why

[WeinketoWarrick]

A shame I just burned through 700 points in the casino.

I'll throw out the same offer as Peavy. Anybody pays my buy-in and we'll split half.

[secretstash]

john..if we stake someone and/or another scenario where multiple posters are involved and the cash is won for 1st.. are u giving us the ok to exchange contact info for this contest?

i know outside of it its normally not permitted right?

just wondering how this would work out when the cash pours down and people come out pissed

might be interested in buying some people or myself in and have to know prior since no one asked or i didnt see it asked


-stash

[shari91]

Shari shoot me a text, lets talk sponsorship

Yeah I got you. But don't be a degen... save some pts before hand please.

Or remind me about Captain Crunch next time at least

[Duff85]

I am currently securing backers for this contest as well. Can the prize money or points share of each poster be paid directly to them if I win a prize? I would be able to send the due amounts to whoever is responsible for paying out at SBR if I was to win.

I am happy to pay out the points from my account - but if we win the cash prize that would become a bit messy.
