best contest there is

[RudyRuetigger]

better add that if you are unable to get a bet365 acct to use your screen name. no doubt you will get 25 fukkin questions on it

[BigDeem5]

One suggestion before the capping starts, should jus do 100 plays 1u each and spreads only.

1-2u and no limit on each means everyone will just pump 2u's... Better off keeping consistent 100 plays, 1unit each and see who can hit 60% over 100

With a suggestion there is positive feedback too.. Good call with the BJ tri points about 1/3 of the longer contests (poker/capping)

deemer wtf do you think the difference is if everyone will "pump" 2 unit plays instead of 1?

[BigDeem5]

This is easy.. Incase some idiot starts out at 70% he can't just be a poonani and last 5-10 picks make em 1u...

Keep it real consistent.

Rudy, don't get an attitude with me with me.

[RudyRuetigger]

more strategy not only on what size to make the bets but when to make them.

[BigDeem5]

more strategy not only on what size to make the bets but when to make them.

We both know 95-98% people will just flat bet the 2u...

I'm saying don't even allow a little strategy...

If you are going to you should do 90 plays 1u , 10 plays 2u like most major contests.. Everyone should have same stipulations is my point.

Was the playing in 2+ tournaments a day addressed?

Lord Dissick's Bitch

For a second or two, I thought the new sbr beer btch was that Kardashiskank with the bad attitutude that is, or was, hooked up with that dickweed who always dresses like a complete fool and calls himself "lord dissick"!

[PharaohUB]

This is my first time trying this contest. How does poker work? Are you ranked based on total Poker Points won in the daily tournaments? Is there a leaderboard somewhere that is updated?

[Reload]

Very cool contest and a super video intro!

[mpaschal34]

So only 10 people win prizes in the end? I probably don't have a chance to cash since I'm a novice capper. Just hope that Philly pride idiot stays around long enough to fade.

[Reck]

So new to this also.

Sign in to the Hoops contest like any other contest...
Poker is automatic
Blackjack...(never played) automatic sign up also.

in other words does signing up in hoops enter you in all three portions of contest.

Thanks for replies

Contest will be more interesting and attract more posters if the prizes are distributed more evenly.

#1 gets $4,000 and #10 gets the equivalent of $40 in points.

So the #10 gets only 1% of what the #1 gets.

However in awarding Tri points the #1 gets 200 points and the #81-90 spot gets 2 points.

Do you see why the prize distribution is flawed?

It's 5th grade math. Maybe you need to go back to elementary school again.

You've got it right. You register one time for the hoops contest. You play the poker tournaments however often you want as normal. And blackjack you'd show up and play in the casino on the specified day and time.

We'll also be posting leaderboards as we go.

[playersonly69]

The point values are not properly distributed. I have nothing wrong with 200 points for first, but second should be closer to 1st. Like 190 or 195 points.

Or even 100 points for 1st and drop down 2 points for every place after that until like 60 points. Then you can jump 5 points for every 10 people or so

[RudyRuetigger]

i have not 1 fukkin complaint in this contest

unreal

[knight]

I only play cards, don't know dick about basketball or blackjack. Oh well, guess I'm on the rail til spring.

[Reck]

Thanks for the quick reply...

The blackjack portion...I am assuming it's like a poker tourney...Everyone must show up at 5 est on the 13th...If you cannot make this, (I am a tax accountant...Really bad day) do you lose your points on the other two portions of contest? or in a sense are the three contests independent with bragging rights going to the player that places highest cumulative in all three events?

If you can't show up, all you lose is the chance to add to your Tri-points total.

Each competition awards Tri-points that go toward your overall contest standing.

[BigDeem5]

Any change to the 1 max of poker tournaments in a day?

[Kindred]

Jackie Blue gave me blue balls....sorry couldn't resist.

Nice contest, blackjack 1 point max pretty lame but still should be a fun contest

[leetreaper]

It's more than enough...

You're right Rudy. And here is the first question. International users whom already have a non SBR Bet365 account should use their screen name or their Bet365 name?

Or is Bet365 allow us to open another, unlimited, account? That would be really nice!!
