what are the payout levels at 5 dimes streak contest?...I might give them a shot since they have more choices...

to get 50 dollar prize you need to have made a bet of at least 50 dollars within 24 hours (before or after) of making the first pick of the streak

all prizes, they give you a list of items from amazon or you can take a freeplay of that amount

25 is basically impossible but 15 is realistic.

Betting Streaks of 5 wins will be awarded a $50 Valued Item.*
Betting Streaks of 10 wins will be awarded a $500 Valued Item.
Betting Streaks of 15 wins will be awarded a $2000 Valued Item.
Betting Streaks of 25 wins will be credited $5000 Cash Reward.
Betting Contest Winner of the month will be credited a $1000 Free-Play.

Damn, that's a lot better than Betdsi's payout format...except betdsi pays you $25,000 if you hit 21 in a row...but the first three payouts, (5, 10, 15) advantage 5 dimes...

PM me your username and password. I'll take care of it for you.

If any money is mysteriously missing, I swear it's just a coincidence.

I don't think anyone has won the top prize at either place

they'd have to run it for a long time for someone to get 20+

I assume the contest will end if and when someone hits 21 in a row...hopefully it's one of us SBR crew members!...

italian soccer today, fiorentina

playersonly69 · 03-22-15, 03:55 PM

5dimes contest isn't too hard to get to 5 and 10 wins.

A lot of the hockey plays can be made at odds of -160 or so

yisman · 03-25-15, 08:59 PM

I was one away from tying the monthly leader (whose streak ended at 12), but I took Boston tonight. My streak has been 11 for a long time because my last pick pushed.

What a killer. I wasn't counting on making 15, but one win and I at least tie for the monthly prize, if not win it.

Da Manster! · 03-25-15, 10:43 PM

good luck yisman...I had Murray ST (+2) on the contest...

...but at least my big money teaser is still alive!...

yisman · 03-27-15, 04:52 PM

only soccer available today

doesn't matter because I'm at like 45% at the streak game over the last couple of months

BigSpoon · 03-28-15, 05:00 PM

Have to take Charlotte +2.5 today. Can't pass up 7.5 points of line movement.

BigSpoon · 03-31-15, 05:30 PM

Have to take Atlanta +5.5 today. Can't pass up 7.5 points of line movement.

Da Manster! · 08-03-15, 08:44 PM

well, the streak has reached 18!...

...congrats to whomever that may be!..

...three away from $25,000!...I'm legit pulling for this guy or gal!...

The Giant · 08-03-15, 08:48 PM

Wow, really? I've got no money in Bookmaker right now. This is my off-season for a few more weeks.

yes sir, Giant...I'll tell a lie with you, but not at ya!..

...you don't play MLB?!...I've been crushing bases this year with MLB teasers on totals at Heritage!...

I was just looking at your baseball thread, Manster, you have quite a distinct style. I like baseball, but not really for betting purposes. I'm more of a basketball/football guy. I quit doing the contest at Bookmaker, since I believe it would only pay 10% without action being placed.

Da Manster! · 08-03-15, 09:04 PM

thanks, Giant!...I've always been successful doing them....can't wait til football season...My favorite teaser is a 4 Team 13 points (-120) at Heritage!...all other books charge higher juice on the same type of wager...anyhow, I made a deposit in my bookmaker account as well and decided to play in the streak contest again...like you said, there ain't no use in playing if your account is inactive.

DiggityDaggityDo · 08-03-15, 09:09 PM

18... wow

I actually forgot about the streak challenge and haven't done it in a long time.

The Giant · 08-03-15, 09:49 PM

I was playing the one at Covers for a while, I believe it's $25,000 for 21, and $100,000 for 25.

But then forgot about it. They're all kind of boring and impractical.

Da Manster! · 08-08-15, 01:42 PM

Well, the guy or gal that had won 18 in a row came to an end...there are two 11 win streaks in the lead right now!..but damn, that was one hell of a run!...

DiggityDaggityDo · 08-08-15, 01:47 PM

Thats a bummer.

I'm at 3. I'll check back in after I reach 5.

Da Manster! · 08-08-15, 08:13 PM

I'm at 3 also, DDD!...

...I've been playing primarily at Heritage because of MLB teasers on totals but I re-upped at betdsi so hopefully I can start another streak as well!...

DiggityDaggityDo · 08-08-15, 08:18 PM

I forgot to make a pick today. I always fukkin forget.

Da Manster! · 08-08-15, 08:32 PM

yeah, I had twins and indians over 7.5!...easy winner!...

...I got some afternoon appointments tomorrow so I probably won't be making any plays...but I do have my $25 free play from Heritage on the Hall of Fame game...I've got Steelers (+2.5) but now the line is +3.5!...

...that would suck if Minny wins the game by 3!..

DiggityDaggityDo · 08-08-15, 09:07 PM

I forgot about HOF game.

Can't believe football is right around the corner.

DiggityDaggityDo · 08-17-15, 10:50 AM

I hit 5 in a row for the $25 free play.

My best ever is 7. I'm shooting for 9.

This was technically 7 in a row but I forgot about the contest after those first two wins.

Congratulations! Your account has been credited with a 25 USD free play for reaching a streak of 5 wins.

yisman · 08-17-15, 01:15 PM

their winning streak thing is always messed up

it should give you the timespan the streak lasted for but it doesn't

The Giant · 08-17-15, 07:08 PM

Nice work, Diggity.

What's the play for tonight?

DiggityDaggityDo · 08-17-15, 08:17 PM

The Giant, I did not make a play today.

Other than totals there was only one MLB game offered. I hardly ever bet totals.

I wish they offered MLB RL's.

The Giant · 08-17-15, 08:22 PM

I haven't made a selection over there since like June, DiggityDaggityDo.

I usually take the summer off from gambling. I need to recharge, you understand?

I don't really like when you play those +1.5 RL's. Over the long haul, I think those are value suckers.

One more question, DiggityDaggityDo. Have you ever used Bitcoin?

DiggityDaggityDo · 08-17-15, 08:26 PM

The Giant, I have never used Bitcoin.

I'm a US Dollars kinda guy. I even like the 1 cent pennies.

Sounds to me like you're stuck in your ways and afraid of change, DiggityDaggityDo.

You're like an old general manager that refuses to embrace sabermetrics.

I'm the same way. It sucks. We need to delve into this together, DiggityDaggityDo. It's the future.
